stuffed bread with potato

Stuffed bread with potato, also known as potato stuffed bread or aloo bread, is a delicious and comforting dish. Here’s a simple recipe to make it:Ingredients:

For the dough:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

For the potato filling:

• 3 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled, and mashed
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• Salt, to taste
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

For topping (optional):

• Sesame seeds
• Nigella seeds (kalonji)
• Chopped fresh coriander leaves

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
2. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil to the flour mixture, and knead until you have a smooth and elastic dough. You may need to adjust the amount of water or flour to achieve the right consistency.
3. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
4. Meanwhile, prepare the potato filling. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, finely chopped onion, green chilies, cumin seeds, garam masala, turmeric powder, salt, chopped fresh coriander leaves, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.
5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
6. Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal portions, depending on how large you want your stuffed bread to be.
7. Take one portion of the dough and roll it out into a circle or oval shape on a floured surface.
8. Place a generous amount of the potato filling in the center of the rolled-out dough.
9. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to enclose it completely, pinching the seams together to seal.
10. Place the stuffed bread on the prepared baking sheet.
11. Repeat the process with the remaining portions of dough and potato filling.
12. Optional: Brush the tops of the stuffed bread with a little water or milk, and sprinkle sesame seeds, nigella seeds, and chopped fresh coriander leaves over the top for added flavor and decoration.
13. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
14. Remove from the oven and let the stuffed bread cool slightly before serving.
15. Serve the potato stuffed bread warm as a delicious snack or side dish.
