Method

Nepalese Bread With Chicken and Vegetables is a community recipe submitted by Kukka and has not been tested by Nigella.com so we are not able to answer questions regarding this recipe.

Mix the yoghurt and mango chutney and put in the fridge.

Heat some oil in a pan and fry the sliced chicken. Then add the sliced vegetables and cook until they become tender. Season with ginger paste, sambal oelek, salt and pepper. Leave on low heat.

Make the dough by mixing water and yoghurt, adding salt and flour (in which you've added the baking powder). Then add the oil. Don't mix too much or the dough will get too tough.

Divide the dough into 8 small balls. Pat each piece on a floury surface into thin little breads (diameter ca. 20 cm). Fry each side for about 3 minutes on a pan until you get brown spots on the bread.

Take the bread, put on some lettuce, stuffing and sauce. Enjoy.
