Ingredients

  • 200 g grated cauliflower (fresh, coarsely grated)
  • 50 g frozen peas (thawed)
  • 150 g whole wheat flour (sift before use)
  • 2 cuillères à soupe cooking oil (vegetable) (for the dough and cooking)
  • 1 cuillère à café salt (divided between dough and filling)
  • 1 garlic clove (diced)
  • 0.5 cuillère à café fresh ginger (grated)
  • 2 cuillères à soupe fresh cilantro (coarsely chopped)
  • 0.5 cuillère à café masala powder (or curry powder) (optional, adds heat)
  • 10 cl water (lukewarm)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough

    In a bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, salt, and oil. Gradually add the lukewarm water while kneading until you obtain a soft, non-sticky dough.

    Time: PT5M

  2. Dough rest

    Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let rest for 10 minutes so the gluten can relax.

    Time: PT10M

  3. Prepare the filling

    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan. Add the garlic and ginger, sauté for 30 seconds. Stir in the peas and grated cauliflower, cook for 5 minutes while stirring. Add the masala powder, cilantro, salt and cook another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

    Time: PT8M

    Temperature: feu moyen

  4. Divide and roll the dough

    Divide the dough into 8 equal balls. Lightly dust each ball with flour, flatten with a rolling pin until you obtain a disc about 10 cm in diameter.

    Time: PT5M

  5. Stuff, seal and reshape the breads

    Place 3 tablespoons of filling in the center of each disc. Fold the edges to enclose the filling, form a ball, roll it again in flour then flatten to a 12‑15 cm diameter.

    Time: PT5M

  6. Cooking the breads

    Heat the pan over medium heat without any fat. Place one bread, let it change color (≈1 min), add a drizzle of oil, flip and cook the other side until golden (≈1 min). Repeat with the remaining breads.

    Time: PT5M

    Temperature: feu moyen
