Best 2 Lamb Frankie Indian Street Type Sandwich Recipes

BOMBAY FRANKIE

Steps:

• Place the rack as close to broiler element as possible and preheat a pizza oven or standard oven to 475 degrees F.
• For the chicken: Stir together the ginger-garlic paste, paprika, garam masala, turmeric, dried fenugreek leaves, lime juice, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken and, using your hands (I use a glove!), massage well into the chicken. Drizzle with enough oil to gently coat the chicken and massage again. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. At this point, you could refrigerate the chicken overnight to marinate. If you don't have time for that, let it sit for 20 minutes at room temperature.
• Place the chicken in a 14-inch cast-iron pan and slide into the oven under the broiler, if using a regular oven. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 155 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Turn the broiler on and cook until the top of the chicken is gently charred, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes in the pan, then slice thinly. Set aside in a bowl, pour the pan juice over it and keep warm.
• For the salad: Add the fennel, fennel fronds, onions, lime juice and a hefty pinch of salt and toss to combine. Set aside to marinate for 10 to 15 minutes. Add the cilantro and a sprinkle of chaat masala if desired. Taste for seasoning and set aside.
• For the eggs: Set a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Beat the eggs well, with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside. Pull the paratha right out of the freezer and flop onto the pan. Cook on one side until gently browned, then flip and cook on the other side to the same level. Remove from the pan. Now pour about an egg's worth of egg mixture into the pan and immediately place the cooked paratha on top, twirling the paratha so the egg coats the surface. Cook until the egg is cooked through. Remove from the pan.
• To assemble, place a small handful of chicken down the middle of the egg-coated paratha. Perch some salad on top and sprinkle with another pinch of chaat masala if desired. Roll and serve immediately.
• Combine the garlic, ginger, oil and vinegar in a food processor bowl and process until smooth. Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks.

LAMB FRANKIE (INDIAN STREET TYPE SANDWICH)

Steps:

• I am putting the assembly ingredients first so you can make sense of the directions following and what they are for :) The actual directions for assembly are at the end.
• Assembly.
• 8 rotis.
• 1/4 cup oil.
• 3 eggs, beaten.
• 1 recipe lamb masala.
• 1 recipe lime-cilantro onions.
• 3 tablespoons green chutney.
• 1/2 cup tamarind and date chutney.
• Heat a large griddle or heavy skillet over high heat. Place a roti on it and turn after about 30 seconds. Brush lightly with oil and turn again. Oil the second side. Pour about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the beaten eggs onto the roti and spread to cover surface. When the egg starts to firm, flip the roti to cook the egg into a light omelet-like coating on that side, about 30 seconds.
• Rotis:.
• Combine 2 cups of the flour, the sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the flour and add the yogurt. Use your fingers to add the milk, 1/4 cup at a time just until you have a soft workable dough. set aside, covered, for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 8 pieces and roll each into a ball. dust in flour and flatten into disks 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter. Roll out into thin 8-inch rounds.
• If freezing or refrigerating, layer between pieces of wax paper or parchment and seal tightly in plastic, then in aluminum foil.
• Lamb Masala.
• Cut lamb into 1-inch cubes, fat and silver skin trimmed if necessary.
• Puree the garlic and half of the ginger in a blender or mortar and pestle, using just enough water to bind, approx 2 tablespoons. Set aside in a bowl. Slice the rest of the ginger into thin matchsticks and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy saucepan over high heat. Add the onions and sauté until they caramelize, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir frequently so the onions do not burn at the edges. Reduce the heat to medium if the onions start to burn.
• Add the garlic-ginger purée and the lamb and continue to brown until the meat juices have almost dried up, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper and turmeric and mix well. Mix in the sliced tomatoes, chiles, reserved ginger and salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the meat is tender enough to cut with a fork, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
• Lime-cilantro onions.
• One hour before serving, combine the onion, cilantro, salt and lime juice to taste in a bowl and toss together. Cover with plastic and set aside.
• Assembly.
• Remove the roti to a plate, egg side down. Place 3 to 4 tablespoons of warm lamb masala in the center lengthwise. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of lime-cilantro onions, 1 teaspoon of green chutney and 1 tablespoon of tamarind and date chutney. Fold the bottom end of the roti over about 1 1/2 inches and roll like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining rotis. Serve immediately.
