Ingredients
- Butter Chicken – The base of this paratha roll is the classic butter chicken curry. If you are making the butter chicken just for these paratha rolls, we recommend making them with less water than usual.
- Paratha – you can use fresh homemade paratha or frozen parathas for this recipe. Frozen parathas are readily available at Asian supermarkets. If you don’t have access to these, you can even use flour tortilla wraps from the grocery store.
- Toppings – sliced red onions and cilantro are perfect for this recipe. The curry from the butter chicken masala makes for the best sauce for this. If you prefer a roll with more sauce, you can add some imli (tamarind) chutney or yogurt raita like this mint raita!
