    1. Roll the chappati dough to a medium size, then keep some mashed aloo mix in the center of the dough. 
    2. Wrap the aloo mix with the dough so that it gets stuffed inside.
    3. Again roll the dough gently to a required size. [Don't try to roll it thin, stuff may come out.]
    4. Fry it in a pan by adding 3- 4 drops of ghee.


    -> It is not necessary to grind green chilli, corainder leaves and garlic. You can add these without grinding also.
    -> You can also fry the potato mix in a pan for 5 to 8 mins and then stuff it in a dough. Its completely optional.
