Cucumber and chick
peas:
-julienne cucumber into 2 inch sticks, set aside

onions, cumin, black mustard seeds, lemon juice, red chilli powder, salt, dash
of garam masala powder.
Simmer for 20 minutes until tender. Let it cool to room
temperature.
Mashed potatoe
- boil 1 medium potato, cook until completely tender, mash
to a creamy consistency with 2-3 tablespoons of cilantro spicy mayo. Let it
cool to room temperature.
Roll:
-cut the nori sheet into 2/3 of its size
-spread out a thin layer of rice on ½ of the nori (I placed
the nori sheet on top of a sheet of clear plastic wrap, both on top of a sushi
mat)... Overlap with the rice, a thin spread of mashed potatoes to fill the
other ½ of nori
-you'll need a bowl of water so the rice and potato don’t
stick to your fingers...
-In the center where the rice and potato overlap, create two
parallel lines with chick peas and cucumber. Now roll baby roll. Cut into
desired sizes. Add a small or big dollop of raita on top!
