IMG_7118

Spicy Potato Rosemary Burger – Scrumptious patties have been prepared with mashed potatoes, jalapeno slices, garlic cloves, coriander leaves and seasoned with rosemary herb and piri piri mix. I have used bread-crumbs and a small quantity of cornflour as binding agents.

Bread Rolls Recipe

imageThis is our favorite snack at home when we just forget about calories and simply gorge on it. My mother used to prepare this filling for samosas and everyone just loved it. It looks like a simple recipe but trust me, this potato filling is full of varied flavors. Each and every bite of bread roll is worth the calories that go with it.

Secret to make potato filling so delicious is to use a lot of coriander powder and let spices cook a little longer than necessary.

Enjoy scrumptious bread rolls with coriander chutney and tomato ketchup along with a hot cup of ginger-tea.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 Medium Potatoes (Boiled and Mashed)

For Potato filling:
