Boil the potatoes till tender & mash when cool
Roast the Fennel seeds and grind to a powder
Heat some oil and add the Cumin & Mustard seeds
Add the Onion and saute till golden brown
Add the Curry leaves, green Chillies
Add the Mutton and the Chilli & Turmeric powder & Garam Masala
Add the Ginger & Garlic paste and saute
Add some extra oil if needed and fry the Mutton pieces
Add the Pandan leaves
Add the Leeks
Add the Water and stir
Cover and cook for 15 mins or so making sure to stir in between
Add the mashed Potato & Coriander, mix and allow to cool
Start with the pre sifted Flour, add Water a little at a time and whisk together to blend
Add the Eggs and most of the Water
Reserve about a cup for later
Add the remaining Water in the batter as it thickens towards the end
Add some oil to a hot pan, and pour in 1/4 cup of the batter
Add it to the centre of the pan, and swirl it all around
Allow it to cook, and then turn the pan around and tap it on the board
Keep doing this cooking the crepes on one side.
Transfer the crepes to another surface where they can cool completely
Place the crepe down, cooked side down
Add about 2 tbsps of the filling towards the top of the circle
Fold the sides over
Since we’ve cooked one side, the other side, is semi sticky and is easy to hold together when you fold it
Fold over the top, tuck the filling in and roll
Again since one side is semi sticky you will not need to add anything to seal the pan roll
Roll the whole batch and keep aside
Dip the rolls in the left over batter and allow to drain off the excess
Dredge in Breadcrumbs
Deep fry
