Celebrating Rain with platter of Nectarine Coconut Pound Cake and Ginger Tea

Rain always reminds me of sizzling hot onion fritters with steaming cup of  hot tea
Rain always reminds me of the small paper boats which we used to float during our childhood days
Rain always reminds me of the rainy day due to which our school had to be closed
Rain always reminds me of the Shri Krishna Janmashtami stories which Dadi used to tell us,
Rain always reminds of the chicken roll sold at commercial street in bangalore and my college freinds

Cook when it rains - Chicken roll

hi guys i think its time i post about what i did with the leftover lahsuni chicken...but before that will share some memories which inspired me for this recipe,
back in my college days...whenever i used to go shopping with my friends,,,this was one of the regular thing which i used to have in blore...i am talking about frankies if i am not wrong but my short memory suggests me this name,,,Frankie's chicken roll...priced at 15rs each,,or maybe 20...real good rolls...and when they used to prepare i used to watch how they are preparing ,...so my recipe is my version of what i had seen there,,,really miss those days,,and friends,...
roll in one hand ...shopping bag in other hand,,,we used to walk,talk,or wait for the movie show,..cause most of the time,,,we had to rush,,,before time to get the tickets,...or even if we were not shopping..we were just window shopping and thinking of the time ,,when we will earn so that we need not think about money...roll was always there...and sometimes we had to drench in rain to get the roll,,,or stand in queue long one,,,but the first bite and u forget everything,...that was the taste,.
.now place is different...friends are different,...and even roll is different....sigh...
miss those days and my frens....know enough of memories...sorry i don't want to bore u more,,

ingredients for one person

one leftover roti
one egg'
leftover lahsuni chicken or u can use any leftover veggie or chicken(cooked)
chopped small onion one
half lemon juice



chat masala
one tsp oil

procedure

heat oil in pan.
