Tortilla Rolls Potato Logs/ Rolls with Potato Logs and Tortilla Lunch Box Idea/ Kids Favorite

Rolls with Potato Logs and Tortilla
Lunch Box Idea/
Kids Favorite

Hi Friends,
I am so happy today i tried my first veggie roll which i wanted to pack in my kids tiffin since long. My son like rolls very much. He saw in kissan advertisement in which they roll chapati and make rolls with it. As i don't watch TV i was not aware about it. My son came one day and asked me the way to make rolls with roti. i did that and he ate two rolls. Earlier i use to give them rolled rotis/chapati with mix of sugar and ghee or with available dry sabzi. sometimes i smeared it with tomato sauce but stuffing always come out and end up with a mess up of everything. I wanted to try rolls like we get at eatery outlets. I was bit confused about its rolling, spilling of filling etc. 
Finally i decided to give it a try and my kids smiling faces and a round shape with fingers made by my son saying "mammy its yummy" was the out come of my efforts. Can't tell you how happy and satisfied i was. Rolls were so delicious. i made one for myself also which i tasted few minutes back and realized that it was so yum. adding olives gave a very nice crunch and taste to it. Potato log was just mouthwatering paring well with added veggies. Now it would be a regular affair in my kitchen. To minimize my work in morning hours i made tortilla at night and also shaped potato logs and kept them in the airtight box in the fridge. Next morning i started frying my rolls and side by side chopped veggies. Now at the time of assembling my kids started disturbing me to grab one. So quickly i made rolls and packed. It took hardly 15 minutes to pack their boxes. 
These are also very good option for kids parties. You can prepare things night before and you just need to assemble the things at party time. How easy na? or pack your kids lunch box or enjoy it at morning breakfast or evening snacks. Any time they will be great to share (may be not to share hehehe).

Easy Wheat flour and Semolina Wrap/ Atay or Sooji ka Wrap

Easy Wheat flour and Semolina Wrap/
Atay or Sooji ka Wrap
Hi Friends,
Valentine day's fragrance is in the air. Markets are flooded with heart shapes pillow, key rings, bags t-shirts, even restaurants are offering wide range or menu on Love themes. You can see love birds doing endless shopping for their loved one. I am also planning to bake a cake for that day with my first experience of icing with butter-cream icing. Earlier i used only chocolate sauce or ganache to decorate and ice the cake as it was the easiest option for me. Lets see what would be the outcome. 

Now to the today's recipe. I made these wraps with great success. I saw them in a magazine and stored in my memory as i found them very easy and healthy. You can use any of your favorite filling for it. I used dry potato-peas masala. For more filling option you can see here, here and here. This is a crispy wrap. You can close it from all sides to make a pocket, but i made them for my kids lunch box they insisted me to make them like this only. They enjoyed it a lot and asked me to make them again. Hope you will also like it.

Ingredients:-
Sooji/Semolina- 1/2 cup
Wheat Flour - 1/2 cup
Ajwain- 1 tsp
Roasted cumin seeds- 1/2 tsp
Salt - as per your taste
water - 1 cup (approximate)
Any dry filling- i used dry potato-peas masala

Method:-
take your ingredients

mix all of them

add water 

make a thin batter

heat a non-stick tawa, 
spread a ladle full of batter on it and cook for few seconds

turn and cook from other side also

turn again and place the filling on it

wrap it
you can wrap it from 3 sides also and even make pockets by wrapping from all sides

Ready to go in the lunch box

ENJOYYYYY
