and marinate the octopus half an hour in this mixture. Stir fry the

Fry the onions, the
garlic and the chillies for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and fry 3 minutes
more. Add the green peas, tomatoes, turmeric and ginger and 1/2 cup
of water and simmer for fifteen minutes. Dip the slices of bread shortly
in water and carefully press the surplus water out. Distribute 1 1/2
tablespoon of the potato mixture over the bread and roll it up. Repeat
with other slices. Put them in the fridge for a few hours. Fry the rolls
in hot oil until they are golden brown.
