Remove the stalks.<\/p>\n<p>Take besan and make a thick paste by adding salt, garam masala, red chili powder, coriander powder and amchoor with water. Add water slowly with continuous mixing so as to form a smooth uniform paste. The paste should not be too thick or thin but should be of spreadable consistency.<\/p>\n<p>Take the arbi leaf and keep it facing down. Apply a layer of besan paste on it. Roll the leaf so that besan paste remains inside.<\/p>\n<p>Repeat the process with the rest of the leaves.<\/p>\n<p>Deep fry these rolls. If you really want to reduce the calories then instead of deep frying, steam cook these rolls over gas or in microwavable steamer.<\/p>\n<p>Set aside to cool. Cut into small pieces just like spring rolls.<\/p>\n<p>Heal two tsp oil in kadai and to this add hing, mustard seed, zeera and ajwain. Let these sputter.<\/p>\n<p>Add cut green chilies and ginger garlic paste.<\/p>\n<p>Saut\u00e9 for 2-3 min and add arbi leaf rolls.<\/p>\n<p>Keep the flame low and saut\u00e9 it for another 5 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Remove from heat. Sprinkle some chaat masala and fresh coriander leaves.<\/p>\n<p>Serve with tomato ketchup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My first reaction after seeing the snack made from arbi ke patte (leaves of colocasia) and besan was an over fried patty.
