Mexican Tortilla Wraps

I am a freaky mexican cuisine lover.Love to have any dish of mexican cuisine.When I saw tortillas  in walmart,cud'nt resist from buying those.Here I have used chunky salsa for the spread.It was so flavourful.I have used chicken,egg and beans stuffing.Chicken was sauteed with garlic- chilly paste.Our dinner was very successfull.Hubby loved it.Rohith was curiously exploring the stuffings and started eating tortillas.Give it a try.


Ingredients:
1.Tortillas                            -        4
2.Cooked lima beans            -        1/4 cup
3.Eggs                                   -        2
4.Onion                                 -        1/2
5.Red and green peppers       -        1/2 in each colour
6.Mayonnise                          -        1/4 cup
7.Tomato Salsa                      -        1/4 cup
8.Cheese                                -        1/4 cup
9.Chopped cilantro                -        1 tbsp

For Chicken stuffing:
1.Chicken          -        1 cup
2.G&G paste     -         1 tsp
3.Turmeric pwdr-        a pinch
4.Garlic pods     -        3
5.Green chilly     -        1
6.pepper pwdr    -        1/2 tsp

Method:
For the chicken:
* Take a pressure pan,add chicken ,g&g paste and turmeric pwdr.(No need to add water,as chicken will leave out water)
* Pressure cook for a whistle.When the whistle is released,remove chicken from bones.
* Grind garlic and green chillies into a fine paste.
* Take a pan,add a tsp of oil,add the grinded chilli-garlic mix and saute it well.
* When the raw smell is removed,add the cooked chicken and scald in well.Add salt and pepper pwdr and toss it well.Remove from the flame and keep it aside.
* In the same pan,add egg and scramble it .Add alt and pepper pwdr .Keep it aside.


For the veges:
* Slice the onion and bell peppers into length wise.
* Take a pan add oil and saute the veges well.Let it be crunchy.Keep it aside.

Assembling the wrap:
* Take a bowl,add mayonnise and salsa together and mix.
* Slightly heat the tortillas both side.
* Now apply the mayonnise-salsa mix evenly.
* Take a hand full of sauteed chicken and egg.Place them at one end.
* Top it with sauteed veges,cooked beans and cheese.
* Finally squeeze out some lemon juice, garnish with cilantro.
* Fold and enjoy the wrap.


Note:
We can alter the stuffing according to our taste buds.I prefer to use a big sized tortillass for a comfortable wrap.But since ,I didnt get one,used a medium sized tortillas for the wrap.We can also use only salsa spread and can avoid mayonnise.
