aloo puff recipe | aloo patties puff | potato patties – homemade sheets with step by step photo and video recipe. puff recipes are one of the popular tea-time snacks across india and are served in many flavours. however, it is always prepared and served in a bakery and less likely prepared at home assuming it could be tricky to prepare. hence to prove that myth wrong, i am showing a simple and easy potato-based puff recipe known as aloo patties puff.
i have always been a huge fan of patties or puff recipes or specifically snacks from bakeries. i developed the taste during my college days and i was regularly having it during my college breaks or in the evening with my regular friends. honestly, i never had a clue during those days on how these patties are made and more importantly never bother to discover it. even though i was super critical about the taste and i was particular with a few bakeries only. today with this blog, i realise how these bakery items are prepared and more importantly have the confidence to prepare these at home. especially during these uneven pandemic times, it is always good to prepare these at home and enjoy these snacks with friends and family.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the aloo puff recipe. firstly, the stuffing is prepared using only boiled and mashed potatoes. the same recipe can also be prepared using mixed vegetable-based puff patties too. as matter of fact, you may also prepare paneer or tofu-based patties too. secondly, you may prepare these crispy munching snacks using store-bought puff pastry sheets too. this would drastically save your cooking time and also be a much easier option. lastly, you may also bake these or even shallow fry instead of deep-frying for a healthier option.
