Stuffed Garlic Bread


In my childhood on a hot sultry summer day my grandmother would serve me "Dahi Bhat". Dahi Bhat was a very cool and comforting meal with a little pickle beside it for the few elder kids. The taste of curds, milk, cream and salt mixed in the right proportions by the warm loving fingers of a grandmother's love was a treat we looked forward to. Today times have changed my granddaughters when they come to stay with me expect something fancy and 'hep' as they call it. I therefore have to devise new ways to present common food ingredients. They hate capsicum and salad leaves that goes under the title 'ghaas phus', so I avoided it, you can include that, it taste good and looks good.


Ingredients:
  • 1 Garlic Bread.
  • 1 chicken breast.
  • 1 tomato.
  • 1 cucumber.
  • 1 onion.
  • 1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • 1/2 carrot, 1 stem celery, 1/2 onion, 1bay leaf  and chicken to be boiled together.
Method :
  • In a bowl, shred the boiled chicken the stock can be used for clear soup.
  • Slice tomatoes vertically, same with cucumber and onion.
  • Mix chicken and vegetables, add balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
  • Make a horizontal slit in the bread and  make a pocket, do not separate it.
  • Apply butter if you like.
  • Place the stuffing.
  • If you like, place salad leaves of your choice and roasted sliced capsicum.
  • Cut into desired pieces and serve with a mix of mayonnaise and tomato chilli sauce.
 



Serve with a fruit juice of your choice.
