Busy Mornings & Roti Rolls

By



Mornings are the busiest time of the day, especially on working days..from tea to breakfast to lunchbox for office or school..its a routine for most from Monday to Friday..sometimes even Saturdays..

Sharing a recipe that not only can be given to your child in his/her lunch box, but can also be enjoyed by others in the family in breakfast..
Tried and tested or rather tasted recipe.....everyone at home loves it.
Saves a lot of time on a really busy day plus its healthy and home made. 
Does mimic the taste of pizza too 😊

Roti Rolls with pizza toppings.
  • Choice of veggies is completely as per your liking: Onion/tomato/green capsicum/other (red or yellow) bell peppers/sweet corn*/mushrooms*/broccoli* etc.
  • Chop or mince all the veggies. (how you prefer)
  • In a pan take oil and stir fry the veggies on high flame for a few minutes. We do not have to cook them completely. Just to evaporate the moisture and crisp them a bit. Also raw might spoil or smell  depending on the lunch break of your child.
  • Switch the gas off. Grate cheese on it. 
  • Add red chilli flakes, mixed herbs and salt to taste. (cheese has salt in it, so add salt accordingly)
  • Mix everything up and your filling for the roll is ready.
  • Make chapatis using whole wheat flour. Apply either ghee or butter on the chapatis.
  • Put a big spoon full of this mix on each chapati and roll as shown in the above pic.
Let the rolls cool a bit before putting in the lunchbox. They won't turn soggy.
Tomato ketchup can be given separately if required. 💚

* Please note: Stuffing made with just onion/tomato/peppers tastes great too. I usually make it this way  when its for an ealy morning tiffin. It gets cooked in a jiffy. But if you do have time on your hands do try these options as well -
  1. Sweet corn - boiled before adding.
  2. Mushrooms - sauteed with a little fresh or powdered garlic and butter
  3. Broccoli - should be either steamed or sauteed and added after all the veggies have been sauteed. Check this link to see how to cook broccoli -http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-cook-broccoli-5-ways-167323 
Do try this recipe and share your experience or feedback. 
This recipe comes without measured ingredients as it completely depends on the quantity of vegetables you use. Everything else that is cheese, herbs, chilli and salt all should be according to ones individual taste.
Happy Cooking💗

13th September 2017 My first ever blogging experience...I will try my best to share my experiences through read worthy posts.  Food, both cooking and eating is something I enjoy truly with all my heart. I love delectable smells, colours of vegetables and fruits, flavors of various spices and generally everything that is related to food. Falling in love with red kidney beans from the time they have just been soaked to all the way till they are eaten is who I am and I often end up questioning myself if thats really normal 🤔  For me food doesn't have to only taste good even if it is just an everyday meal..it has to look good and smell amazing too. Almost all our senses play a major role in deciding what to eat and at times bring back memories too. In a world where restaurant style food has entered our homes, home cooking style is being adopted by many eateries for people who miss it.  My cooking style is very simple. My mother Shama B...

I couldn't think of a better way to start my  journey than by sharing a favourite sweet dish of all in my family and one of the easiest Indian desserts -   Lachchedar Kesar Rabdi Its a very simple recipe and can be made as easily by a first timer as by an experienced cook and makes enough for 3 to 4 people and that too with ingredients that are easily available at home.  Ingredients Milk - 1.5 ltrs Sugar - 2 tbsp initially *+ 1.5 tbsp  Kesar or Saffron 1/2 tsp each** Elaichi or Cardamom - powdered or whole Ghee (Optional) Almond and Pista for garnish *Initially put less sugar than required. Adjust according to taste when done as it may become very sweet once the milk reduces.  **Before you begin, soak kesar or saffron in milk and after it has softened mash it with a spoon...brings out a lovely flavour. Method Take a heavy bottomed Kadhai and just rub it with a little ghee (its optional)  Pour milk and a dd kesar and elai...

Exams and a bowl of porridge

Ever wondered why we have to appear for an exam and disliked the very thought of its existence?  Well, l guess most of us have and many would disagree with me too. Its not an opinion I hold, but yes when my daughter has her exams, I land up asking myself " Did I not have enough of my own share in school and college?" I guess Saraswati, the Hindu Goddess of Knowledge, Art, Learning, Music and Wisdom thinks I probably need some more knowledge or I didn't do justice to it in my growing up years. We didn't have the Internet and the World Wide Web when i was in school and even college..(ya ya I belong the pre internet era and you can keep guessing how old I am) to help us with our studies the way we do today. Now, I take a lot  of help from Google to make sure I am teaching my daughter the right concepts..(read - I don't trust my brains anymore). So many explanations are easily available on any subject or topics that I never studied in school.  With changing tim...
