Ingredients
Method
To make the paratha dough:
- In a large bowl, add all-purpose flour, sugar, salt and ghee. Combine everything well. Gently rub the ghee in the flour. But avoid overmixing.
- Gradually pour a little lukewarm water into the flour and start kneading the dough.
- Keep adding water in small quantities until the dough comes together. At this stage, the dough might feel a little sticky.
- Transfer it to the rolling mat. Stretch the dough with the heel of your palm, away from your face. Then fold it back and rotate the dough 90 degrees in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. Again stretch, fold and rotate. Keep repeating until you get a non-sticky, soft pliable dough. It may take 8-10 minutes.
- Gently pull the sides towards the centre, tucking loose ends underneath.
- Brush a little oil on the inside of the bowl. Place the dough ball in it and brush the oil over the top.
- Cover it with a damp kitchen towel. Allow it to rest for at least an hour.
To make the kathi roll filling:
- Take the Hello Tempayy(tempeh) cubes out of the refrigerator and thaw them completely.
- Heat a pan over medium flame. Pour oil and allow it to heat up.
- Add the tempeh cubes and cook for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown in colour.
- Add julienned onion, tomato and capsicum. Mix well.
- Cook for a minute over a high flame while stirring continuously.
- Add red chilli powder and salt. Give it a good mix.
- Turn the flame off. Keep it aside.
To make the paratha:
- Transfer the dough ball to the rolling mat. Roll it into a log and divide it into 5 parts.
- Gently pull the sides towards the centre, tucking loose ends underneath. Shape all the small dough balls in the same manner.
- Brush them with oil. Cover them with a damp cloth. Allow them to rest for 10 minutes.
- Take one dough ball and keep the rest of them covered.
- Place the dough ball over the greased rolling mat. Flatten it a little with your fingers.
- Roll it out into a circle. Brush melted ghee over it. Sprinkle all-purpose flour.
- Then lift one end and start making pleats. Roll the pleated dough into a ball (like a pinwheel). Tuck the end at the bottom.
- Flatten the dough ball a little with your fingers. Roll it out into a circle.
- Note: While rolling the paratha, grease the rolling mat and rolling pin with oil to avoid sticking.
- Heat a tawa over medium flame. Carefully place the paratha on it.
- Cook for a few seconds. Then flip and cook the other side for a few seconds.
- Pour a little oil around the paratha. Cook until it becomes slightly golden.
- Then again flip it and pour oil around the paratha. Cook until golden.
- Flip again and cook for a few seconds until the paratha becomes crisp and golden in colour.
- Make all the parathas in the same manner.
To assemble the roll:
- Place the paratha over a plate. Add cooked tempeh filling. Drizzle tomato ketchup and mayonnaise. Add finely chopped onions and sprinkle chaat masala over it.
- Place a piece of baking paper on one end of the paratha. Fold it in a little. Then start rolling the paratha with the paper.
