- 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 medium carrot (julienned)
- 1 small capsicum (thinly sliced)
- 1/2 cup cabbage (shredded)
- 2-3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon tomato ketchup
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 teaspoon black pepper powder
- Salt to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons oil
- Spring onions (optional, for garnish)
For the Rolls:
- 6-8 chapatis or parathas (can be store-bought or homemade)
- Green chutney or mayonnaise (optional)
- Tomato ketchup or chili sauce for drizzling
- Butter for toasting rolls
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Chowmein
- Boil the noodles: Cook the noodles as per the instructions on the packet. Drain and set aside.
- Stir-fry the veggies: Heat oil in a pan. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add the onions and cook until translucent. Toss in the carrots, capsicum, and cabbage. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes on high heat, keeping the veggies slightly crunchy.
- Season the noodles: Add soy sauce, chili sauce, tomato ketchup, vinegar, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
- Toss the noodles: Add the cooked noodles to the pan. Stir well to coat them evenly with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish: Add chopped spring onions if you like, and remove from heat.
Step 2: Assemble the Rolls
- Prepare the base: Take a chapati or paratha, and spread a thin layer of green chutney or mayonnaise if desired.
- Fill the roll: Place a generous portion of chowmein in the center of the chapati.
- Drizzle sauce: Add some ketchup or chili sauce on top of the noodles for extra flavor.
- Roll it up: Fold the sides of the chapati over the noodles and roll it tightly.
- Toast the roll: Heat a little butter on a tawa or pan. Toast the roll for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Serve:
Serve the Chowmein Rolls hot with extra ketchup or chutney on the side. Enjoy!
These rolls are perfect for snacks or even a quick lunch!
