Baked Chicken Roses

I was getting bored sitting at home the other day.
Nothing good to read, nothin interesting to write about, nothing to paint!!!
And then i suddenly remembered about this recipe, which i had come across in facebook, months back!!! It was nice to eat, warm and yumm!!

The filling was what i made in the begining: Heat 2tbsp butter in a pan and fry 2 small chopped onions till soft, add 4 chopped green chillies as well.  Add 500 gm chicken mince to the onions and mix well. Add 1 tsp of freshly ground black pepper, a bit of garam masala powder,  a bit of milk and cover and cook on low flame  till cooked. Finish with chopped coriander leaves. And keep aside the filling, and bring to room temperature.

To make the dough mix 4 cups of all purpose flour, with 2tbsp powdered milk, 1 tsp salt, 4 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 egg & 1 tsp castor sugar and 3 tbsp kalonji (that's my twist!!!!) I also added a bit of warm water to bring the dough together.

It makes 15- 20 roundels from this dough.

Flour your rolling surface and Roll out each ball into an approx 4" diameter circle.
Melt a bit of butter and keep aside. Brush this inside the dough.

Make 4 diagonal slits and add your filling in the centre.

Cover your filling with two opposite sections. Repeat with last two sections. Pinch the dough on the side to seal it. Repeat with the other two sides as well.

Place the prepared rolls on a greased tray. And pre-heat the oven to 180 degree C.
Mix 1 egg yolk with 2 tsp of milk. Brush the rolls with this mixture. And put it inside the oven. Bake for 20-25 mins.

Once ready, remove and brush them again with melted butter. You will see the babies blushing more!!

I know, the recipe sounds and seems (courtesy pics of all steps) very easy. And the best part is that the ingrediants are all ready in the kitchen. I am sure, you will love it with some hot coffee as well!!!

See you all soon!!
