I like to wrap it in thin rolled roties and enjoy!
Kati roll
Notes:
  • Changes I made to the original recipe are,I omitted methi seeds and kalonji seeds(onion seeds) in the tadka part. Also I added roasted methi seeds powder instead towards the end.
  • Original recipe asked for amchur powder,I had no stock so added lemon juice.
  • So if you can get the above items,you can try that too.
