02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

Heat some oil in a pan and sauté the chopped garlic and onions for a minute or two until they’re fragrant.

02

Step 2

Add the chicken pieces and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they turn white.

03

Step 3

Sprinkle in the chili powder, salt, cumin, pepper, and chili flakes. Stir everything together well.

Step 4

Pour in a little water, cover the pan, and let it cook for 3-4 minutes. Then add the chopped carrot, capsicum, cabbage, and green chilies. Give it a good mix and cook for another minute. Finally, stir in the chopped coriander and set the filling aside to cool.

In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with a little water until smooth—this will help seal the wraps.

Place a square dough sheet on your work surface, spoon some of the chicken filling into the center, fold the corners in, and roll it up tightly. Brush the edges with the cornflour slurry to seal it.

Serving ideas

Serve with a side of guacamole, salsa, or sour cream for extra creaminess. A simple green salad or some crunchy tortilla chips make a great accompaniment. For a spicy kick, add sliced jalapeños or hot sauce.

Storage & leftovers

Wrap leftovers tightly in foil or store in an airtight container in the fridge. They keep well for up to two days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave to keep the chicken moist and the tortillas soft.
