Ingredients

  • potato3 boiled and mashed
  • green peas1/2 cup
  • cumin seeds1 tsp
  • garam masala1 tsp
  • spring roll sheets6 cut into strips
  • oil2 tbsp

Method

  1. Make the filling

    Mix the mashed potato, green peas, cumin seeds, garam masala and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mash any lumps smooth so the filling packs tightly and does not tear the thin sheets as you fold.

  2. Fold the pockets

    Place a spoonful of filling at one end of a sheet strip and fold it over into a triangle, turning down the strip to the end. Press the last edge firmly to seal so the filling stays in while cooking.

  3. Brush with oil

    Brush each pocket lightly with oil on both sides and arrange them in the basket without overlapping. The oil helps the sheets turn crisp and golden, and spacing keeps every side crunchy.

  4. Air fry until golden

    Air fry at 190°C for 12 min, turning the pockets halfway, until they are golden and crisp all over and the thin sheets hold their crunch right to the sealed edge.
