- dissolve yeast in little bit water and rest it for at least 5 minutes until it gets foaming / bubbling up
- mix 3/4 tsp of salt and flour in a bowl
- add dissolved yeast water and milk to the flour. Mix well
- slowly add water and form a dough. the dough has to be sticky
- cover the dough with a wet cloth or paper cling and keep it aside at least for 2 hours
- the dough quantity will be doubled after 2 hours
- add softened butter to the dough and knead it well. keep it aside.
- pressure cook potato for 3 whistle and mash it well . Fine chop the onion.
- heat oil in a vessel and add cumin seeds
- once it splutters add chopped onion.
- once the onion becomes transparent, add salt, turmeric powder, chili powder and sambhar powder. add less salt than usual as we will be adding cheese which itself will give a salty flavor.
- mix well and then add the mashed potato
- sprinkle some water and cook it for 5 mins.
- add chopped coriander leaves and mix well
- Place parchment paper in a baking pan and apply some butter
- dust some flour on the rolling pan and dough
- divide the dough to two equal sized balls
- flatten one dough ball to a big circle and place it on the parchment paper
- spread the potato masala in the center of the dough circle
- fold the sides and cover the masala so that the masala is completely sealed
- sprinkle cheese on top of it
- preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius or 350 degree Fahrenheit
- flatter another dough ball to a thick circle and then place it on top of the cheese layer
- tuck all the extra sides under the first layer
- sprinkle chopped coriander leaves on top
- bake it for 30 - 35 mins . (if you insert a toothpick , it should come out clean)
