Chatti Pathiri / Layered Pan Cake

Chatti  pathiri is a layered meat (or sweet) filling . it is a wonderful  heavy snack also. It includes three steps of making. Making the masala, dipping batter and making pan cakes. You can make the pan cakes by method of making dosa also (flour, water, egg,salt). But here I’m making the chappathi dough and make pan cakes from this; it tastes more than the other way.

1. Chicken boneless-250 gm
2. Onion-3small
3. Ginger chopped-1tsp
4. Garlic chopped-1tsp
5. Green chilli chopped-1tsp
6. Curry leaves chooped-1tbsp
7. Coriander leaves chopped-1tbsp
8. Turmeric powder- ½ tsp
9. Chilly powder- ½ tsp
10. Pepper powder- 1 tsp
11. Coriander powder-1 tsp
12. Garam masala- ½ tsp

For the pan cakes:

1. Maida / all purpose flour- 2cup
2. Ghee-1tsp
3. Salt to taste
4. Water- to make dough

For the dipping:

1. Egg-3
2. Milk-1tbsp
3. Pepper powder-1/2 tsp
4. Salt-to taste

• Keep it aside.
• Now for the dipping mixture beat all the ingredients (egg, milk, pepper powder and salt) in a blender and pour it in to a wide plate.
• Take a nonstick pan; add 2teaspoons of ghee.
• Dip one chappathi in the egg mixture and put it in the pan.
• Make the chicken masala in to 6 parts.
• Take one part and spread it on top of the dipped chappathi in the pan.
• In the same way dip other chappathis on the batter and spread the remaining masala on top of it.
• Put the last chappathi on top of the pan and pour the remaining egg batter on top of it.
• Cover the lid tightly and cook it in a low flame for 20-30 minutes.
