Spicy potato egg rolls

Hi guys, if you’ve seen my previous recipe posts you would know, that I am a total chai person. My morning cuppa, the first thing after I wake up, is mandatory. The day wouldn’t begin if I don’t have it. And another cuppa in the evening. So, to make my chai time more special, I try to make something that I can have along with it. Appe pan sabudana vada, baked mini dal samosas, healthy lemon loaf cake are some such tea time recipes of mine. And to add to the list, here are my super easy and quick spicy potato egg rolls. These stuffed deliciousness, will make your tea time or coffee time experience even more supreme. Soft flatbreads covered with a fried egg and wrapped around a flavourful potato mix, is what these rolls are made of.

“Roll” is a very Kolkata term. When I would visit my grandparents during summer vacations, I would gorge on the yummy egg and chicken rolls that streets of the city had to offer. However, back in Mumbai, these are called “frankies.” And in London, they are known as wraps. So many names to the same food 🙂 No matter what you choose to call them, they are a delight to have and effortless to make.

You will be able to make these spicy potato egg rolls within 15 minutes. In fact, I saved even more time by using ‘recycled’ potato stuffing. And what I mean by that is, I had made aloo parathas the previous day, so I used the leftover filling. Isn’t that genius? You can find my aloo paratha – spiced potato stuffed flatbread recipe here.

The rolls

For the rolls, I have used store bought tortillas. Nonetheless, you can absolutely use homemade chapatis or Indian flatbreads too. These spicy potato egg rolls are quite healthy too. There is minimal use of oil here and it has the goodness of eggs. The rolls also have some sliced cucumbers and onions in them. However, there is no stopping you from adding more veggies. You could used sliced capsicum and peppers or loads of salad leaves.

These frankies or rolls, are pretty filling too. So, it makes for a great lunchbox idea and a quick weeknight dinner. In fact, I love making these for Sunday breakfasts as well. They taste delicious even if you skip the filling. Yes, that is right. Make the rolls with the egg and add your sliced veggies sprinkled with some chaat masala. And you will be good to go. You can pack these rolls for a summer outing in the park or your back garden. Team it with with some hot tea or refreshing soda. Kids will love it and so will adults.

So, here goes the recipe. Do give this a try and let me know how you enjoyed it!

Bon apetit!
