Preparation of vegetable Stuffing:

(1) Peel the skin of potato and boil it in either pressure cooker or water. Once it is boiled, smash it. Keep it aside. Finely chop carrot, beans, cabbage and onion. Keep it aside.
(2) Heat oil in a pan. Add ginger and garlic and saute till raw smell goes off. Now add onion slices and little salt into it. Saute till the color changes to brownish. Reduce the flame to low. Add carrot and beans with turmeric powder and salt. Saute till it is half cooked (keep on stirring, no need to add water, if you find it too dry just sprinkle water over it or add more oil).
(3) To the half cooked veggies, add cabbage. Continue stirring till the veggies are cooked well. Now add red chilly powder, coriander powder and garam masala powder. Mix well.
(4) To this add smashed potato and mix well. Make a salt test here. Your vegetable stuffing for chapathi is now ready.


Now you have to stuff this masala inside the chapathi.

preparation of vegetable stuffed chapathi:

(1) Roll the chapathi dough into circle shapes. Try to make it thick. Now add 2 to 3 tspoon of vegetable stuffing into it.
(2) Fold four sides of chapathi and cover the vegetable stuffing as shown in the below snap.
(3) Gently roll over this and make circle shapes again (i got square shapes :p ).
(4) Heat tawa and put the stuffed chapathi over it. Lightly spary oil on both sides. Your vegetable stuffed chapathi is now ready.



Enjoy this healthy dish in breakfast, lunch or dinner…

tips:

  • Try to use equal quantity of vegetables.
  • Chop the vegetables into small and thin pieces . i used a vegetable slicer.
  • If you want to reduce oil,  add quarter cup of water to the vegetables and boil it by closing the pan with a lid in low flame.
