Steps
- To begin making the Achari Aloo Kathi Roll, prep all the ingredients and keep them ready.
- First step is to get the hummus and the achari mix ready.
- For the hummus, add the cooked chickpeas into the mixer grinder along with garlic, olive oil, cumin powder, red chilli powder and salt. Blend all the ingredients to make a smooth hummus and add little water if required. Notice the smooth texture of hummus after grinding.
- Next step is to make the achari mixture.
- Into the Chutney Jar of the mixer grinder, add a punjabi mango pickle or pachranga pickle, along with saunf, garlic and ginger, Blend to make a smooth paste of the pickle masala. Yes it's as simple as that.
- Keep this aside.
- I am going to be using a yogurt dip as a dressing for the rolls, for that into a mixing bowl, add the hung yogurt, the garlic, salt and olive oil. Whisk well to combine and voila the yogurt dip is ready.
- Now to make the Achari Aloo.
- Heat oil over medium heat in a heavy bottomed pan; add the potatoes and sprinkle salt.
- Pan roast the boiled potatoes until they are cooked, golden and lightly crisp.
- Once done, add the achari masala to the aloo and toss well for another 3 to 4 minutes until the potatoes get well coated with the achari masala.
- Turn off the heat once done. Give it a taste and adjust the salt accordingly.
- The final step is to make the roti for the rolls. In a large mixing bowl add the flour and salt, give it mix with your fingers. Add a little water at a time and make a smooth dough.
- Once you have the dough ready, add a teaspoon of oil over the dough and knead for a couple of minutes, this will give the dough a flaky texture.
- To make the wrap for the kathi rolls, divide the dough into 4 large portions. Roll the dough into a large circle by dusting it in flour.
- Preheat a skillet on medium heat.
- Place the rolled dough on the skillet and cook it on both sides by smearing ghee over it until it is cooked through and browned and slightly crisp.
- The addition of ghee helps in creating a crisp texture to the rolls.
- Now that all the elements for the Achari Aloo Kathi roll is ready, it's time to assemble them.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the raw onions, capsicum, lemon juice, mint leaves and salt. Toss them together.
- Place the cooked rotis on a flat surface. Spread hummus over the roti, place a portion of the Achari aloo towards the center, drizzle a little yogurt dip and sprinkle some onion capsicum mixture and wrap to make a roll.
- Proceed with the same way to make the remaining Achari Aloo Kathi Rolls with Hummus and Yogurt Dip.
- Serve the Achari Aloo Kathi Roll with Hummus and Yogurt Dip as a wholesome dinner for you and your family.
