WHEAT TACOS WITH SALSA

       Today I was extremely busy with the daily chores. And to my horror I got a call from distant relatives, actually uninvited guest. They had self invited themselves. So I was in a fix, didn’t know what to cook.

        I opened my fridge, looked helter-skelter. But alas I was in a fix. Then suddenly my eyes went on the salsa sauce. But I had no tacos or corn meal to make them. So I thought of making them with wheat flour. Believe they were as delicious as the corn meal ones.

Wheat tacos:

1cup   wheat flour

Salt    to taste

1tsp  red chilli powder

1tsp   paprika

1tsp   oregano

1tsp   rose marie( dry or fresh)

2tbsp  oil

1.    In a large bowl mix all the above ingredients.

2.    With the help of water make tight dough.

3.    Divide them into 16 small balls.

4.    Roll each one into thin round chapattis.

5.    With the help of a pizza cutter cut each of them into 8 triangular wedges.

6.    Heat oil to fry. And fry them golden brown colour.

7.    Remove on tissue paper.

8.    You can store them in an air tight container up to 15 days.

For salsa:

2tbsp   olive oil

1tsp     red chilli powder

1          chopped onion

2          tomatoes pureed

 1cup   mixed coloured finely chopped capsicum

¼ cup   finely chopped carrot

1tsp     oregano and paprika

½ cup   tomato ketchup

1tsp     parsley chopped

1tsp     celery chopped

Salt      to taste

1.    Heat oil, add onions. Sauté till translucent.

2.    Add in the red chilli powder. Sauté for 1 minute.

3.    Add in the carrots and further sauté for 2 minutes.

4.    Add in the tomato puree and cook till dry.

5.    Add in all other ingredients and cook on high flame constantly stirring till the mixture is dry.

6.     Remove from flame and let it cool down.

To serve, in a platter place the tacos and top them with 1tsp salsa sauce. Finally sprinkle grated cheese. And voila!!!!!! Treat is ready.
