Aloo puff in Indian style with cute little baby potatoes, lots of caramelized onion and spice powders. Crispy bakery style puffs, homemade tea time snack.

📝 Ingredients

  • 12 Baby potatoes
  • 2 puff pastry sheets
  • 4-5 Onions (Large, sliced)
  • 1/2 tsp Ginger garlic paste
  • 1/8 tsp Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp Garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp Coriander powder
  • Salt
  • Ghee (or Butter to brush)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Take out the pastry sheets and leave it on counter top.
  2. 2Pressure cook small potato with water enough to immerse all potatoes and lots of salt.
  3. 3Just for one whistle in medium flame in such small pressure cooker.
  4. 4Once done, cool down and peel it.
  5. 5Meanwhile heat a pan with oil. Add sliced onion with a lavish sprinkle of salt.
  6. 6Saute until golden and caramelized. After that add ginger garlic paste.
  7. 7Cook furthermore for 30 seconds to 1 minute. After that, add all the spice powders, salt and sauce.
  8. 8Quickly give it a fry and set aside.
  9. 9Then take one puff pastry sheet and cut into 9 squares as shown below.
  10. 10Arrange them in a greased baking tray. Spread a tsp of onion over each square.
  11. 11Place aloo over it. I placed whole aloo (small potato) as such in this batch.
  12. 12Again add 1/2 tsp onion over it.
  13. 13Bring together two opposite corners of the squares to the middle and seal it.
  14. 14Repeat to finish all. Make sure to firmly seal it as it may come out while baking otherwise.
  15. 15Meanwhile pre-heat oven at 200 deg C for 15 minutes. Place the tray in middle rack (both heating elements on).
  16. 16Bake for 20 minutes or until golden in color.
  17. 17I also did this way. Sliced potato into halves. Place the flat side down.
  18. 18In this, you can bring all the tips together in the center and seal like a pocket.
  19. 19Bake same way.
  20. 20Once done, optionally you can brush with butter or ghee for glaze.
