Vegetable Bhakarwadi

Today is a rainy day and we had Chicken Pulao in lunch - a heavy lunch. But in the evening, we wanted to have some chatpata snacks. This time I tried to follow a recipe which I found in the book "Cooking with Love" by Sanjeev Kapoor. As I did not have all the ingredients in my kitchen, so I used those which I had & prepared the vegetable bhakarwadi.

These small things tasted very good & were perfect for our rainy-snacks.

Ingredients:

Refined flour (maida) - 1 cup

Salt to taste

Oil to fry

Cauliflower - 1 cup (finely chopped)

Carrot - 1 cup (finely chopped)

Black pepper powder 1/4 teaspoon

Method:

1. Knead the refined flour with salt, oil and sufficient water to a semi-soft dough. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside. 

2. Blanch the cauliflower and carrot separately till soft. Drain thoroughly and mash. Mash together the cauliflower, carrot, salt and black pepper powder.

3. Divide the dough into four equal portions and roll out into thin chapattis.

4. Spread the vegetable mixture evenly on all four chapattis. Roll them tightly into cylinders and cut the cylinders into half inch slices.
5. Heat sufficient oil in a kadai and deep fry the bhakarwadis, on medium heat, till golden and crisp. Drain on absorbent paper and serve.
