Sweet, tangy and chillied potato’s are simple, delicious and easy to make. They make a great appetizer for any party. The best part of these is that they get made in a jiffy if you already have some boiled potatoes. The sesame seed gives the crunchy texture; in addition, the garlic, ginger and the soy sauce adds the required kick for this sweet potato.

Grilled eggplant wrapped around tangy feta cheese, flavored with basil and sun dried tomatoes, make a wonderful combination of sunshine flavors. The sharpness of feta cheese and the grilled eggplants enhances the flavor of this delicious roll. Since I did not have basil, I used lettuce leaves as shown in the photo. Tofu or Paneer cubes can be used in place of feta cheese.When using tofu, sprinkle it with a little soy sauce before wrapping the rolls. An excellent appetizer goes well with all drinks.  Many combination's are possible with this roll, you can use pesto sauce, or just freshly cut tomatoes, jalapenos, etc..
