Ingredients for Flatbreads:

  • Yogurt 300gm
  • Flour 350gm
  • Baking powder 1 tsp
  • Oil for brushing & frying
  • Melted salted butter 25gm
  • Black poppy seeds 2 tsp

For Kofta:

  • Crushed garlic 2 cloves
  • Grated ginger 1 tbsp
  • Breadcrumbs 50gm
  • Chopped coriander handful
  • Ground cumin 1 tsp
  • Turmeric 1 tsp
  • Ground coriander 1 tsp
  • Chopped fish fillets 4

For Raita:

  • Yogurt 200ml
  • Mint leaves handful
  • Crushed garlic 1 clove
  • Mango/any chutney 3 tbsp

 

Method:
To make the flatbreads, put the yogurt into a bowl and mix in the flour, baking powder and 1 tsp of salt. Knead briefly to bring together as dough. Leave in a covered bowl for 30 minutes.
Put all the kofta ingredients in a food processor, season well, and pulse until combined. Form into small patties and chill for 20 minutes.
Mix the raita ingredients, then season.
To cook the flatbreads, divide the dough into 4 and roll out on a lightly floured work surface. Heat a frying pan. Lightly brush a flatbread with oil, put in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until it starts to puff and turns a dark golden color. Brush with butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Keep warm wrapped in foil in a low oven while you cook the rest.
Cook the koftas in a little oil for 3-4 minutes each side, in batches, until cooked through.
To assemble, divide the koftas between the flatbreads, spoon on some chutney and raita and serve immediately.

Ingredients for Cupcakes:

  • Butter 115gm
  • Sugar ¾ cup
  • Eggs 2
  • Milk ½ cup
  • Vanilla essence ½ tsp
  • Flour ¾ cup
  • Flour ½ cup + 1 tbsp
  • Rosewater 1 tsp
  • Pink food coloring as required

For Rosewater Butter cream:

  • Butter 115gm
  • Icing sugar 3-4 cups
  • Milk ¼ cup
  • Rosewater 2 tsp
  • Pink food coloring as required
  • Pistachios ¼ cup (to decorate)

Method:
For cupcakes preheat oven to 170°C. Line 12 muffin tins with cupcake papers and grease a baking pan. Cream the butter until smooth in a bowl. Gradually add the sugar and beat for 3 minutes until fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift the 2 flours and salt into a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients in 3 parts, alternating with the milk and vanilla. Do not over mix. Separate ⅓ of mixture to a small bowl. Add rosewater and drops of pink food color and mix well. Pour mixture into greased baking tin and cook for 15 mins, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Once completely cool, cut hearts out of the cake with a cookie cutter.
Put a dab of vanilla mixture into each liner and stand the hearts up facing one direction. Spoon the remaining vanilla mixture around each heart until the cupcake liners are about ¾ full with mixture. Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden brown. Allow to cool in the tin for 15 minutes, and then turn out onto a wire rack. Make sure you keep them facing all the same way!
For butter cream place the softened butter in a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Gradually add in 2 cups of sugar, then the milk and rosewater. Beat for around 3-5 minutes until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the remaining sugar until it is thick enough to ice the cupcakes (you may not need all the sugar). Add a few drops of food coloring and beat until the color is well distributed. Spoon the mixture into an icing bag with a nozzle attached and ice the cupcakes. Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the top to garnish.
