  • 50g Everest Garam Masala
  • 50G Green Chilies
  • 100 g Jeera
  • 20 g Turmeric Powder

Instructions

  1. 1. In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and add cumin seeds and hing. Once aromatic, add chopped spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
  2. 2. Add boiled sweet corn, grated paneer, green chilies, garam masala, chaat masala, and turmeric powder to the pan. Stir well and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the mixture is well combined. Let it cool completely.
  3. 3. In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, 1/4 tsp salt, and a little water to form a firm dough. Knead for 5 minutes and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  4. 4. Roll out the dough into small circles (about 4 inches in diameter). Place a spoonful of the spinach-corn filling in the center of each circle.
  5. 5. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Seal the edges by pressing them together firmly. Use milk if needed to help seal the edges.
  6. 6. Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (356°F). Lightly spray the pockets with oil and place them in the air fryer basket.
  7. 7. Air fry the pockets for 10-12 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
  8. 8. Serve the Spinach & Corn Air-Fried Pockets warm with your favorite chutneys or dips.
