Steps

1. To begin making the Aloo Bread Pakora Recipe, first we will make the Green Chutney.
2. Into a mixer grinder add the coriander leaves, mint leaves, curry leaves, roasted peanuts, lemon juice, sugar, salt to taste and water. Blend to make a smooth chutney. Transfer into a bowl and keep aside.
3. Next we will make the Potato filling. Into a large bowl add the boiled and mashed potatoes, onions, green chillis, red chili powder, turmeric powder,cumin powder, amchur powder, chaat masala, salt to taste and coriander leaves. Mix well to combine. Keep it aside.
4. Now we will make the Pakora Batter. In a mixing bowl, add besan flour, rice flour, salt, red chili powder, turmeric powder, asafoetida, enos fruit salt, ajwain and salt to taste. Add little water at a time and mix well to make a lump free flowing batter. The batter has to be thick enough to evenly coat the back of the spoon.
5. Heat oil in a deep fry pan.
6. Place 2 bread slices on a flat surface. Smear some green mint chutney on both the slices. Spread aloo filling evenly over one slice. Place the second slice on top like a sandwich and press down gently to hold it together. Trim the edges of the bread slices if you like and cut diagonally into a triangle.
7. Now dip the stuffed bread sandwich into the batter making sure it is coated well on all the sides. Carefully drop into hot oil and fry the aloo bread pakora until golden brown and crisp on all sides.
8. Once done transfer the Aloo Bread Pakora on an oil absorbent paper to drain excess oil and serve hot.
9. Serve Aloo Bread Pakora Recipe with Dhaniya Pudina Chutney and a cup of hot Masala Chai for breakfast or tea time snack.
