Birds nest

It is a very simple snack made with potato and peas. It looks like a birds nest and so it called. I have made something with peas and some with raisins. Here is the thing for you to enjoy with your kids.

                              

 

Ingredients
Potato – 1
Onion -1/4 chopped
Green chilly -1 chopped
Cashews and raisins
Vermicelli for rolling
Maida/All purpose flour – 1tbsp

Method
1.Cook the potato and mash it.

2.Heat oil in a pan, add chopped onions, green chillies and the crushed cashews and raisins and now the mashed potato.
3. Finally add salt and some chopped cilantro. (I didn’t want it to be more spicy. If u want you can add ginger/garlic paste and garam masala and whatever powder you want)
4.Now add little water with all purpose flour.

5.Now make a small ball from the potato mixture and place few cooked peas inside and make it a ball. (you can also use raisins to have brown eggs)

6.Now dip this ball in the allpurpose batter and then roll it in vermicelli and deepfry it in oil.
7. Now the birds nest is ready for your kids to enjoy.
8. serve with tomato Sauce.
