Food Recipes Lunch Curried Vegetable Roti Be the first to rate & review! This decidedly non-authentic recipe is a cross between doubles (a Trinidadian sandwich of fried bread and curried chickpeas) and a kathi roll (essentially an Indian wrap). Grace Parisi folds Indian roti bread around a filling of zucchini, okra, chickpeas, tomato and spinach in a creamy, tangy, curried yogurt sauce.

Add the chickpeas and curry and cook over moderate heat, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the tomato and spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted and the tomato is just beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the water and scrape up any browned bits stuck to the skillet. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper and stir in the yogurt. Stuff the pitas with the vegetables, garnish with the cilantro sprigs and serve. Suggested Pairing Plummy, medium-bodied Rosso di Montalcino. Originally appeared: July 2007 Rate It Print
