Vermicelli-Crusted Potato Rolls
Potato rolls stuffed with peas and rolled in vermicelli before frying. Loud crunch.
Ingredients
- 500g potatoes, boiled and mashed
- 200g peas, parboiled
- 1 cup vermicelli, crushed
- 1 cup vermicelli, fried, to serve
- 250g capsicum, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup parsley
- Juice of half a lemon
- 100g breadcrumbs
- 1/2 tsp chilli powder
- 1/8 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- Oil for frying
- Salt
Method
- Fry the onion and capsicum until tender, add peas, spices and salt.
- Mix breadcrumbs and salt into the mashed potato — it needs to be stiff enough to hold a shape.
- Flour your hands, shape ovals, hollow them, stuff with the pea mixture and close.
- Roll each one in crushed vermicelli, pressing so it sticks.
- Deep fry until golden. Halve lengthways and serve on a nest of fried vermicelli.
