Quick to prepare in under an hour, the Vegan Prata Bomb combines simple ingredients with bold flavors to create a crowd-pleasing masterpiece thatβs as fun to make as it is delicious to eat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while stirring to form a dough.
Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sautΓ© until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and chopped mushrooms to the pan, stirring for 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are soft.
Stir in the curry powder, coconut cream, and chili flakes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and the mixture has thickened slightly.
Remove the mixture from heat and stir in the chopped spinach, vegan cheese, and cilantro, letting the residual heat wilt the spinach.
Divide the rested dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each portion into a ball then flatten into thin discs.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the mushroom filling in the center of each disc. Carefully fold the edges over the filling to encase it completely, forming a sealed pocket.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of vegan butter.
Place each prepared prata bomb onto the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Repeat until all the prata bombs are cooked. Serve them warm, possibly paired with a vegan raita or chutney.
