Chicken roll

Ingredients

For the tomato sauce

Olive oil 1 tbsp

Garlic thinly sliced 1

Carrot 1

Diced red bell pepper: 1

Tomatoes: 5

Salt 1 tsp

Chilli powder: ¼ tsp

Ground cumin: ¼ tsp

For the wrap

Maida 1 cup

Wheat flour: ½ cup

Water : ¾ cup

For the filling

Cooked shredded chicken: 1.25 cups

Cheese: 150 gm

Method

To prepare the sauce

Heat the oil in a pan. Add onions and garlic. Saute till golden brown. Add the carrots and bell pepper and cook till soft. Add tomatoes and the seasoning and cook for about 20 minutes.

To prepare wrap for the roll

Mix the flour: add water to form a soft and elastic dough. Add slowly and knead. Cover and set aside for an hour or a little more. Divide the dough into five equal balls. Roll each ball into a thin round roti-like shape. Heat a skillet, place the roti on the hot skillet and cook for a few seconds, until bubbles begin to form on the upper surface. Flip the roti and cook the other side for a few more seconds. Remove from fire and place on a plate. The roti should not be brown. Finish making the other roti similarly. Keep aside.

To Assemble the wrap

Keep the roti flat on a plate. Spread about 2 tbsp of the tomato sauce on it. Divide the chicken and the cheese into five equal portions. Spread one portion each of the chicken and cheese on half of the roti. Fold the other half over it and make it into a roll.
