I was watching a travel show on food network a while ago and saw a chef make a "frankie roll." Apparently this is a super popular street food in India. Now I have pretty much no experience with Indian food aside from eating it, so I sort of stumbled around the internet looking for recipes. I then stumbled through a variety of grocery stores (safeway, trader joes, etc.) and attempted to find the spices the recipes called for.
Any who I got lucky at Whole Foods and proceeded to attempt a simple veggie roll. Next time I try making Indian food I'm going to try and watch some videos first.
2 medium potatoes peeled, chopped into bite size pieces, and boiled
1 yellow bell pepper
1 large onion chopped (I used a red onion for color)
1 carrot chopped
1/2 a cup of frozen peas
1 small can chopped green chiles
2 cloves garlic smashed
1/2 a teaspoon of red chili powder
1/2 a teaspoon ground corriander
1/2 a teaspoon mustard seeds
2 teaspoons Chaat Masala
Salt to taste
1 Tablespoon canola oil
Prepare the veggies and set aside. In a pan heat oil. Add mustard seeds, onions, and green chiles - cook until onion is translucent. Add all other vegetables, garlic, and spices cooking until tender. Salt to taste. Set aside.
Wrap veggies in whole grain tortillas or for authenticity use a Roti. Serve with chutney :)
