Wondering what to cook for today’s meal? Bored of the same old Roti-Sabji, don’t wanna eat anything fried but still want to eat something delicious and chatpata! Also filling!
I got you covered. 😀
You’d be amazed to find how simple everyday meals can be given a twisty makeover and that keeps each one at home happy. 🙂
I am sure most of you all have a “Kolkata roll wala” in your city that sells like hot cakes. How about creating your own street style wrap/roll? 🙂
Here in this recipe, all we will use is aloo bhujia style chaat, roti/parantha, salad, chutneys, curd.
Okay so let the fun begin, let’s get to the recipe.
Let’s take the recipe step by step.
For Aloo Bhujia Chaat (Crisp Potato Chaat)
2-3 Potatoes cut into thin wedges
2 tbsp oil
1/2 tsp jeera (cumin seeds)
1/2 tsp chaat masala
1/4 tsp black pepper powder
1/4 tsp red chilli powder
1/4 tsp Amchur Powder (dry mango powder)
a pinch of turmeric powder
1/4 tsp jeeravan (optional)
salt to taste
Method –
Heat oil in a pan, add jeera and let it splutter.
Add potato wedges and salt. Cover and cook till it softens about more than half.
Add all the other spices now, give a quick stir.
Cover and cook till done.
Now on high flame, let them get a little toasty.
Turn off the flame. Aloo Bhujia Chaat is ready.
For spread–

1/2 cup finely chopped onions

1/4 cup finely chopped cucumber
freshly chopped cilantro
salt to taste
1/4 tsp chaat masala
1/4 tsp roasted cumin powder
To make the dressing-
Mix curd, chopped veggies, sweet tamarind chutney and all the spices together.
For the roll –
Use thick rolled out Chapatti/Parantha.
(I have used Chapatti thicker than the usual)
Assemble –
Take a parantha/Thick chapatti, as you like and spread the green chutney on it evenly.
In the center spread the aloo chaat.
On top of it spread the dressing, sprinkle a little more chaat masala over it.
Now cover it like a roll and put a toothpick in the centre so as to keep it intact.
Enjoy as is. :))
Enjoy this street style roll, absolutely homecooked. :))
