One has to make the masala aloo same as we make for masala dosa. Heat oil in a pan add mustard seeds, when they splutter add Masalas mentioned and stir to avoid burning. Now add boiled and mashed potato. Mix well n let it cook well.
When its cooled down enough to handle, roll a little portion to shape it as a log
Now heat up the idli steamer by adding little water, and place a stand at the bottom.
Grease the glass generously
Pour just a spoon of idli batter and place aloo masala roll in the center and pour a ladle full of batter over it.
Carefully place this glass(or glasses if making more) in the steamer over the stand and close the lid.
Keep the flame to low and let it steam for 15-20 minutes as we do fr idli
Switch off the flame and take it out when its slightly cooled down.
Run a sharp knife around the edges to take it out and keep them in a plate
Now prepare seasoning
Take little oil
Add mustard seeds
When they crackle add curry patta and 4 tbsp of gunpowder, podi or idli chutney powder
Let the rolls smear in that nicely and evenly
Take them out and cut into the discs and serve hot with coconut chutney
Can be a good starter in your party
