Spicy Chicken Rolls
Tender chicken pieces cooked in a thick, spice-heavy gravy built on caramelised shallots and coconut oil. This is the kind of Kerala chicken dish that families argue about — whose mother makes it better.
Ingredientsfor 2 servings
- 1/2 kg Boneless chicken — minced
- 2 nos Onions — chopped
- 1 Pod Garlic — chopped
- 1 nos Tomatoes — diced
- 1 tsp Garam masala — roasted
- 1 tbsp Chilly powder
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric
- 1 tbsp Pepper powder
- 1 cup All purpose flour Maida
- 1/2 tsp Cumin/Jeera powder
- Butter, to taste
- Salt, to taste
Preparation
Step 1
Half boil the minced chicken with turmeric powder, roasted garam masala, chilly powder and little salt.
Step 2
Get a kadai, heat it and add 3 tbsp butter and cook the onions, garlic and tomatoes. Add pepper powder. 3)Once the onions turn light brown, add the minced half boiled chicken into this and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Allow the chicken to become dry.
Step 3
Make a dough with maida adding jeera powder, salt and little water. 5)Take a dough ball and roll into a thin roti. Cut the edges to make a rectangle shape. Add the chicken mixture in the center and roll it.
Step 4
Heat a tawa, apply litttle butter(or ghee) and pan-fry the rolls turning upside down.
Step 5
Serve it hot with chilly sauce. This can be used as a snack or starter.
Tip
Marinate for at least 30 minutes if you can — the spices penetrate deeper and the chicken stays juicier.
