Ingredients – 1
1 no Multi-grain flat bread
1 no Carrot
1 cup Shredded Cabbage
1 no Onion (thinly sliced)
1/2 tsp Grated Ginger
1/2 cup Shredded cooked meat for your choice (optional)
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Fresh ground Black pepper

 

Ingredients – 2
1 cup Fresh Mint Leaves
1 cup Coriander Leaves
3 nos Green Chili
1/4 tsp Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Cumin seeds
2 tbsp Fresh lemon Juice
few tsp Water

 

Instruction:

Lets make this Green chutney which adds tons of punch to this recipe. You may very well skip this and instead buy the ready-made  Mint Coriander chutney which is available pre-made in most Indian stores. They stay good for long time if refrigerated. The one which we make is with all fresh ingredients with no preservative so they get to stay good for few days.  Lets put all ingredients in table-2 into a blender and grind to fine paste. Its will be really hard to run the blender with less quantity so add some water.

This chutney freeze well if you want to, but make sure you add few drops of oil to this while grinding. Pour the chutney in ice -cube trays and freeze. Now, that’s little too much work , so better make it fresh or buy the ready-made chutney from the store.

There’s a whole of variety chutneys available like Green chili, Coriander, Sweet , Mint….. choose one of your choice.

Just grind them all to make a thick paste.

There you go, chutneys ready! Lets move on to the wrap now. Choose any kind of flat bread, I bought these from a local supermarket, if you can’t find just go with whole wheat tortilla.

For the filling, heat heat little oil in a fry pan and saute carrot, cabbage, onion and ginger with little salt and pepper for few minutes. Meat is just an option, I’ve added left over chicken meat. You may very well skip.

Now let this mixture cool completely. Then spread this over the bread evenly adding green chutney here and there.

Start rolling from one side and finish on the other.

Then cut them diagonally mainly to make it appealing. lol

Voila!! my work lunch is ready to go…..

Pack them in compartment tiffin boxes with some extra chutney for dipping  and with either a salad or dessert of your choice.

Notes:

Yield – 1 adult serving. Make more and dump it in the refrigerator.
