Frankie - Mumbai's snack wrap





This is my version of Mumbai's famous Frankie. It is great for a quick lunch or it could be a great vegetarian breakfast wrap.

Makes one wrap.

Ingredients:
1 Ore Ida Hash brown patty or boiled/mashed potatoes or home fries
1/4 onion chopped
2 small green chilli's chopped
cilantro for garnish
1 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp of paprika
2 tsp of chaat masala (availble in indo-pak store)
salt to taste
1/2 piece of lavash bread
Italian cheese blend (any cheese works)
1/2 tbsp olive oil
Cilantro chutney to taste

Saute the onions and chilis in a pan until the onions turn a lighter red color and are tender. Bake, fry or however you want to prepare your potato's. I used boiled potato's cut into cubes. Add the potato mixture into the onion/chili mixture. Put the mixture in the middle of a 1/2 piece of lavash bread. Add the cheese on the hot mixture and allow the cheese to melt. In the meantime, add lemon juice, paprika, salt to taste, cilantro and chaat masala. Roll the wrap and cut into half in an angle.

  2. I tried Siddhi's receipe this past weekend! It came out pretty good - I modified it by using Indian Bread ( Chapatti or Roti) instead of the Lavash Bread. And I also spread some Cilantro Chutney to the Roti before adding the potato mixture. Overall it was delicious my fiancée and i ate 3 rolls each! We overate...
