Recipe :
Chop carrots and potatoes.
Chop and brown onions in a little oil.
Mix spices into a paste.

Meanwhile, sauté carrots, peas and potatoes with onions.
Add spices, salt and a little water. Cover and leave to simmer at a low heat until vegetables are cooked and liquid has reduced. Sprinkle with lime juice and add a few leaves of coriander.

Mix the two types of flour in a large bowl, with a pinch of salt and a little oil and water. Roll into a ball, then divide into smaller balls. Roll out until roughly 10 cm across and cut in half to make two semi-circles. Close back together as cornet-shapes, fill, then seal by dampening edges. Fry at a low heat in oil. Serve hot or cold.
