Steps to make 'Chatti Pathiri' - Layered Pathiri - Indian Lasagna:
- Masala Preparation
- Boil chicken pieces with little salt, turmeric and pepper powder. Let the chicken absorb all the water. Cool it down and shred/cut into pieces.
- In a pan heat oil, add finely chopped onion and green chillies. Fry till onions turns translucent and little brown.
- Add ginger-garlic paste. Sauté till the raw smell goes. Add a sprig of chopped curry leaves to it.
- Add the masala powders and salt to it. Sauté well for few minutes. Now add the shredded chicken to it. Mix well and cook closed for 5 minutes.The masala should be a dry. Garnish with coriander leaves. Remove from fire and keep aside to cool.
- Making Pancakes/Crepes
- Mix flour,egg,salt and enough water in a blender. Blend it to a thin batter. Now heat a nonstick pan on a medium heat. Pour a ladle full of batter to the pan and swirl it to a thin round shape using the back of the spoon, like how you swirl it for making dosa. Cook on both the sides. (Do not have to make it crispy)
- Prepare crepes using the remaining batter, you may get up to 10 -12 crepes out of this batter. Keep it aside. Make sure that the pancakes do not stick to each other, it might be a pain to separate them. Do not change the heat of the pan.
- For Coating
- In a wide plate/bowl, beat the eggs and milk, add salt and pepper powder.(I found plate easy).
- Layering
- You can use a small or medium sized non-stick sauce pan/frying pan for the final cooking. With this you will get a cake shaped Chatti pathiri. Now grease the sauce pan with ghee.
- Take a pancake/crepe and dip it in "For coating" mixture.
- Place this as the first layer of the "Chatti Pathiri". Spread 1 to 2 tablespoon of the chicken filling evenly over the crepe.Pour a spoon of coating on the sides of the layer and press the masala.
- Now dip the next crepe in egg mixture, make the second layer, spread chicken filling and repeat the same as for the first layer.
- Continue doing the same, until you get the final top layer as the crepe.
- Pour the remaining coating mixture onto the sides and top of the crepe. Drizzle a tablespoon of ghee on the sides and top of the crepe.
- Hold both the sides of the sauce pan and give a small shake so that the coating gets through the sides of the pan.
- Cover it with a lid and cook on very low fire for about 30 - 45 minutes.In between check it. If you see the sides golden brown in colour, off the flame and cover it with a plate and gently flip it over.
- Grease the pan with 2 teaspoon of ghee, gently transfer the chatti pathiri to the pan, but with the top side down.This is done to get a light brown colour on the top side of it. Just cook for 2 minutes. Off the flame.
- Remove from stove and again cover the pan with a plate and slowly flip it over. Cool it down and cut like a cake and serve.
