Ingredients

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the flour, salt, and oil. Gradually add water and knead until you get a soft dough. Drizzle a little oil on top, cover it, and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

02

Step 2

Heat some oil in a pan and sauté the onions for a minute. Add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes until it starts to brown. Stir in the ginger garlic paste and cook for another minute.

03

Step 3

Season with salt, cumin seeds, pepper, and paprika, then mix well. Toss in the chopped carrot, capsicum, and tomato along with some fresh coriander leaves. Cook everything together for a couple of minutes, then set the filling aside.

04

Step 4

Divide the dough into small balls. Roll one out into a flat circle, then spoon some of the chicken filling and a bit of beaten egg in the center. Fold the edges over to seal it up.

Step 5

Heat a little oil on a griddle or frying pan, then cook the stuffed flatbread until it’s golden brown and cooked through on both sides.

Step 6

Serve it hot and enjoy!

Cook's tip

- Use boneless, skinless chicken for faster cooking and easier shredding.
- Cook the chicken filling slowly to keep it moist and flavorful.

Serving ideas

Serve with a side of fresh salad or a dollop of yogurt sauce to add creaminess. It also pairs well with pickled vegetables or a simple cucumber raita for a refreshing contrast.

Storage & leftovers

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or oven to keep the flatbread soft and the filling warm. Avoid microwaving for too long to prevent dryness.
