I made alu porota 🤤

What an irony!I'm writing this article while frying porotas.😅Potato is the key ingredient here.Alu porota is one of my favourite types of porotas.It's a very common Indian food which is super-famous here in Bangladesh too.It's a food I can have all day every day but fat is proportionate to food so I'm making them tonight after quite a long time.Here is the very easy recipe.

Pardon me the shape.I'm not good with shapes.It's filled with mashed potatoes inside.I added extra hence this shape. Ingredients: For the mashed potato filling(alu bhorta)- 1.3 large potatoes 2.Chopped onions-2 tbsp 3.Chopped green chillies-1 tbsp 4.Mustard oil-1 tsp For porota- 1.Flour-1.5 cups 2.Oil-2 tsp 3.Salt-1/2 tsp 4.Warm water-1/2 I fried the porotas with ghee.You can use butter or oil too.5 medium sized porotas can be made by following this recipe.

Preparation: 1.Peel the potatoes and boil it in hot water for about 10-12 minutes.(I put it into a pressure cooker for fast work.) 2.Smash them.Add onions,chillies and oil. 3.Set the bhorta aside.Time to prepare the dough! 4.Add all the ingredients for the dough in a big bowl.Kneed well with hands.Rest it for half an hour. 5.Cut the dough in 5 pieces.Take a piece and shape it like a roti.Put some bhorta inside it.Shape it again by pressing it.Use tools. 6.Take a pan and fry them with ghee.Ghee enhances the smell and taste. Easy to make,low cost,super tasty food ready in no time!😁 Toodles.
