Chicken Frankies/Kathi Rolls

 Yesterday, I happened to read a real life Binjai ghost story on one of my favorite blogs Hari’s got Tales . It was about the author’s encounters with Caucasian apparitions in a small town called Binjai. It was very interesting but it spooked me no end. Of course it was posted keeping in mind the Halloween season.

And as if that hair raising tale was not enough, one of my cousins sent me a must see link to this very interesting game Web Genie. I was hesitant to open the link for fear of encountering a real genie. Nevertheless I did, and was real glad I did. Web Genie is actually a web genius.We just have to think of  a real or fictional character and it will guess the name. It is very very interesting and it worked every time. In no time, my whole family got addicted. If you haven’t tried it so far, do give it a try. I am sure they have a superb software behind it but it is simply amazing.

So the whole of Thursday evening I was so busy getting spooked that I thought of making a quick dinner. Perhaps…something to grab in your hand and run if being chased by a Genie 😉

 

                    Chicken Frankie/Kathi Roll

It is a deliciously different roll, mainly because the wrap is made with Potatoes and Flour and stuffed with juicy chicken tenders and a mint chutney.

For the wrap:

  • 250 g Plain Flour
  • 2 boiled and grated potatoes
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. oil

Make a smooth dough and divide it into lemon sized balls. Roll each one out into  round tortillas. Heat a flat iron pan and cook the tortillas on both sides until light brown spots appear. Keep these aside.

For the Chicken filling:

  • 1 onion ground to a paste
  • 2 tsp. ginger garlic paste
  • 1 tomato chopped
  • 500 g boneless chicken cut in tenders/strips
  • 2 tbsp. oil
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tsp. red chilli powder/paprika powder
  • 3 tsp. lemon juice

Heat oil in a skillet and saute the onion paste, ginger garlic paste and chopped tomato. Add chicken and cook till done. Add the seasonings and remove from heat.Set aside.

 

For the Mint chutney:

  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro/coriander leaves
  • 1 1/2 cups mint leaves
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • salt to taste
  • 1 green chilli
  • 1 tbsp. greek yogurt/peanut butter

Blend together to a fine paste.

        I couldn’t tell that I would not go back to the same place as one was in my old home and the other is the one at the province. 😀 I’d lie if I’d say that I was not scared, but I cannot remember being scared that much. My Mom did not even believe me and I was told not to tell my siblings. So I did not. I read one story over a week ago and goosebumps – same thing happened. I have a problem with my hearing so I don’t know if I hear stuffs the way it is, but I trust my eyes. 😀
