Checken Ottada<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here is a variant of the conventional Kerala-Wheat Ottada recipe. I tried applying a non-veg flavor this time with chicken, inspired by the Spanish Burrito taste. Preparation is pretty similar to that of\u00a0Ottada<\/a>, that I recently shared, but with a masala mix for the filling.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. In a vessel add the wheat flour along with the salt.<\/li>\n
          2. Add a little water at a time for kneading the dough and make a soft and smooth dough.
            \nThe dough should be looser than chappathi dough.<\/li>\n
          3. Take lemon sized dough and keep it on the center of the banana leaf.<\/li>\n
          4. Spread it with your fingertips (see picture). Dip the finger in water in between, this will make the flattening easier.<\/li>\n
          5. Spread the chicken mix on top of the dough.<\/li>\n
          6. Fold the leaf (see picture) and seal well.<\/li>\n
          7. Heat a tawa\/ dosa pan , once it is really hot keep the ottada.<\/li>\n
          8. Once the side is cooked \u2013 ie when the color of banana leaf will be changed to dark brown and banana leaves separates from the dough- flip it into the other side and wait for the same cooking state.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
