Steps:

  • For the Wraps.

  • Ladle in 1/3 cup of batter and swirl around the pan.

  • Set aside until ready to serve.

  • Boil potatoes until soft enough for mashing.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, finely chop carrots, cilantro, and cauliflower.
  • Blanch the chopped vegetables and the green peas for about a minute. Drain.
  • When, the potatoes are done, transfer them to a bowl and mash.
  • Fold in the blanched vegetables and chopped cilantro.
  • Season with aloo bhaji, salt, and pepper.
  • Lay a piece of the prepared wraps onto a working surface and cut into half.
  • Fill with vegetable mixture near to one edge and wrap into triangles sealing with a light cornstarch slurry.
  • Bake at 220C/430F for 10 minutes, flip and continue for 10 minutes more.
