• 1 tsp Dry Yeast 
• 1 tsp Sugar 
• 1/2 tsp Salt + 1 tsp for stuffing 
• 1 cup Maida (Makes around 10) 
• 1/2 tsp Mixed Herbs + 1 tsp Mixed Herbs for stuffing

• 1 tbsp Oil/Melted Butter + 2 tsp Oil for stuffing 
• 1 tsp finely chopped Garlic 
• 1 Onion - finely chopped 
• 1 small Tomato - finely chopped (optional) 
• 1/2 Capsicum - finely chopped 
• 1 tbsp Boiled Sweetcorn 
• Around 150gm Chicken - cut into small pieces (or paneer) 
• 1 tsp Red Chilly Powder 
• 1/2 tsp Pepper Powder 
• 1 tbsp Tomato Ketchup 
• Around 2 tbsp Mayonnaise 
• 1/2 cup grated Cheese / Cheese slices

Recipe Details :

✓ In a bowl take warm milk. Add yeast and sugar to it. Mix well and keep aside for around 10 mins. The yeast will get activated and form a layer. You can use warm water also in stead of milk.

✓ To this add Maida, 1/2 tsp Salt, 1 tsp Oil, 1/2 tsp mixed Herbs and Chilly Flakes mix. Mix well and knead to form a soft and smooth dough.

✓ Add 2 tsp oil and knead again for few more mins to form a softer dough.

 ✓ Cover and rest for around 3-4 hours in a warm place until the dough gets doubled with yeast effect. (I usually keep around 6-8 hours)

 ✓ 30 mins before preparing the parcel, let's get the stuffing mix ready. In a pan heat 2 tsp oil or butter.
Add chopped garlic and chopped onion, saute for few seconds.

✓ Now to this add chopped capsicum, sweetcorn and fry for few mins.

✓ Once the above is cooked a little, add the small chicken pieces along with salt. Mix everything and cook for around 5 mins till chicken is cooked nicely.

✓ Now add tomato and cook for few more mins. You can even skip tomato, this step is optional.

✓ Once the Tomato turns mushy and then soft, it's time to add the spices. Add red chilly powder, Pepper Powder, mixed Herbs and mix everything nicely.

✓ Add tomato ketchup and mayonnaise. Give everything a good mix and the super yummy  creamy stuffing is ready. Keep aside to use later.

✓ Once the dough is doubled in size, knead again for few more mins and make small size balls out of it.

✓ Take 1 dough ball and roll into a thick Puri. 

✓ Apply some water and give it the shape of your choice. I am giving it a triangle shape. 

 ✓ Roll again using a rolling pin and place some grated cheese/ cheese slices on it along with a tbsp of the stuffing and again add another layer of cheese on the top.

✓ Apply some water on the edges and seal them. Repeat the same steps for all the dough balls.

✓ Grease the baking tray with some oil. Place the Zingy Parcels on it to bake further. Apply some milk/butter on the top so that it gives a very nice color after baking. After applying milk, keep again covered for around 15-20 mins.

✓ Preheat the oven at 170°C  and keep the baking tray inside. Bake for  around 20-30 mins. Keep checking in between if it's baked perfectly.

✓ Once the Zingy parcels are baked, take them out, apply butter on the top and sprinkle some mixed herbs. Serve hot and get more love from your kids. 😉😍
