This wrap is packed with punchy flavour, easy to make and will serve the whole family, so it’s a perfect healthy lunch recipe.
Chappati is a type of Indian flatbread that can be used like a wrap to be filled with ingredients for a simple packed lunch option.
While the chicken needs to be marinated for at least a few hours, the wait is totally worth it for the succulent curried flavour that makes this spicy wrap so special.
This recipe uses tikka curry paste to create that spice, while the saffron yogurt offers a bit of relief for those who aren’t too fond of really spicy food.
The recipe serves four, so make it for the whole family for a lunch they won’t forget in a hurry.
