Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

This is a quick, filling and easy to make wrap with complete combination of cereal and pulse that can be used as a meal itself. Bean sprouts are a good source of protein and garlic helps boost immune system and provides protection against cold and cough.. Squeezing a pinch of lemon would add on to the tangy flavour.

INGREDIENTS:

  • Gram flour (besan) - ½ tbsp
  • Whole-wheat flour (atta) plus extra for dusting - 15 g
  • Fresh fenugreek leaves (methi) chopped- 1 tbsp
  • Ground turmeric- ¼ tsp
  • Carom seeds (ajwain) - ¼ tsp
For the Stuffing:
  • Onion chopped- 1 medium
  • Tomato deseeded and chopped-1 medium
  • Green chillies chopped-2
  • Beansprouts blanched- 15 g
  • Fresh coriander leaves chopped- 1 tbsp
  • Red chilli powder- ¼ tsp
  • Lemon juice- 1 tsp
  • Salt- ½ tsp
  • Olive oil- ½ tsp

DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Mix together the two flours, fenugreek leaves, chillies, turmeric, carom seeds and salt. Add enough water to knead into a semi-soft dough. Step 2  Cover the dough with a damp cloth and rest for about 15 minutes. To make the stuffing, heat the oil in a pan, add the onions and tomatoes and saute for 2 minutes. Step 3  Add the chillies, beansprouts and continue to saute for 30 seconds. Stir in the turmeric, chilli powder, salt, lemon juice and coriander, and saute for 1 minute.  Step 4 Remove from the heat and keep aside. Form the dough into a ball and dust these with a little whule- wheat flour, then rull out into roti and cook it. Step 5 To prepare a Frankie, place a roti on a flat work surface and spoon some of the stuffing on one side of the roti, sprinkle on some onions, then simply rull up wrapping them in foil as you go to keep them warm and make them easier to handle.  Step 6 Serve immediately.
