Veg Swirl Pastry

Trying out different forms of pastry is real fascination for me , this time i have gone for cream cheese pastry in  savoury form with vegetarian stuffing, this happens very rarely in our house( vegetarian stuffing).

Ingredients:
Pastry:
Plain flour- 200g
Cream cheese- 50g
Butter- 50 g
Finely chopped fresh spinach- 2 tbsp
For the filling:
Potatoes- 2 medium sized cooked and mashed
Peas- 1 cup frozen or canned
Onion- 1 medium sized finely chopped
Ginger garlic paste- 1 tsp
Chilli powder- 1 tsp
Coriander powder- 2 tsp
Cumin seeds- 1/2 tsp
Salt as required
Oil-1 tbsp
Method:
First prepare the pastry by mixing all the ingredients together to make it into a smooth, wrap it in a cling film and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Meanwhile prepare the filling, heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds, ginger garlic paste and onion. When the onion is soft and light brown in colour, add the spices and stir well. Now add the potatoes and peas, stir well to coat all the spices in the vegetable.Finally add salt, stir well and switch off the flame.
Preheat the oven to 180 degree celsius. Take out the dough and roll it out into a thin long rectangle. Place the filling inside, close the edges. Then swirl it around like a circle, close the edges with water.
Bake it in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Serve it warm with salad and salsa.
