There was a time when making potato rolls was so common in our family. Be it birthday party in the form of small get together of family members or its raining dogs and cats or someone is craving for something delicious, potato rolls were in the forefront.

But the only difference in those days and now a days that earlier, our potato rolls used to be deep fried.

Also this is for the first time that we are making potato rolls using sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes.

While we were making this recipe, the one thing hunting our minds was, “whether natural sweetness of sweet potatoes will affect the over all taste of this snack because this is the savory recipe.

Anyways we tried it with the crossed fingers but the results surprised us to the extreme.

These were really delicious and no where we realized that they have made without deep frying.

THIS RECIPE WITHOUT AIR FRYER

Yes, you can make these sweet potato rolls without air fryer.

Simply deep fry them in hot oil.

These can be shallow fried also instead of deep frying, but for that, their shape has to be slightly flattened like Tikki.

Furthermore, these rolls can be baked in oven.

This is one such recipe which can be easily adjusted as per your requirement and availability of ingredients.

Instead of sweet potatoes, you can use regular potatoes.

Further, you can add finely chopped carrots, beans, green peas or any veggies of your choice.

You would also love the addition of paneer after crumbling it if no compulsion of making it vegan. Or go for Tofu.

May add or coat rolls with breadcrumbs provided you are not on gluten-free diet.

The choice is limitless.

CAN YOU FREEZE SWEET POTATO ROLLS?

Definitely yes but it should not have been wrapped in rice papers…

Without rice paper, this is such a recipe which can be prep ahead of time and cooked later. Even with rice paper you can prepare it before time but do the wrapping and air frying part only before serving because rice paper coating looses its crunch soon after cooking.

For freezing, just shape uncooked rolls and freeze them in a zip lock bag or freezer safe box.

When needs to be cooked, either by deep frying, baking or air frying, thaw them for 15-20 minutes and thereafter cook.

And if you plans to serve these rolls in a small family evening party, still you can follow the similar process.

Shape them hours before serving and put in refrigerator (not freezer).

So when your guests arrive, take the rolls out of refrigerator and fry.

Isn’t it so convenient?
