Notes

  • Amchur powder or dried mango powder is a great substitute for chat masala
  • Add grated mozzarella or parmesan for cheesy puffs
  • For gluten free puff, use gluten free puff pastry
  • More vegetables like bell peppers (capsicum), leek, carrots and green beans make for an absolutely delicious addition to the puffs
