Nowadays, my mom and I talk mostly about food and cooking over the phone, and when it comes to sharing recipes we both are all ears.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, I had spent most of the time organizing the food pictures in my laptop. My laptop is crowded with recipe folders and food pictures, I wish I had the time and energy to blog about everything I&#8217;ve saved over the years. At times I feel I should stop making new dishes until I blog about all the old ones, but this is not going to happen as everyday I come across new recipes and that tempts me to try it right away.<\/p>\n<p>While going through the food pictures, my eyes caught on the Wheat crepes stuffed with Chicken stir fry that I had clicked last month. Some recipe calls only for simple ingredients, yet the dish turns out to be real delicious as if they were made with many complex ingredients. This is one such dish from my mom, made with simple ingredients and the outcome was super yummy that I started making this often for lunch and dinner.<\/p>\n<p>I first stir fried the chicken, then made the homemade wheat crepes, placed the chicken on the crepes and \u00a0wrapped it which gave it the look of a burrito.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chicken Stir Fry:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1512 size-full\" title=\"Chicken stir fry\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/chicken-stir-fry.jpg\" alt=\"Chicken Stir fry\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/chicken-stir-fry.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/chicken-stir-fry-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chicken breast, boneless, cubed- 2 breasts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Masalas<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chili powder- 1 1\/2 tsp or more if you want it spicy<\/li>\n<li>Turmeric powder- 1\/4 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Fennel powder- 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Coriander powder- 2\u00a0tsp<\/li>\n<li>Garam Masala- 3\/4 tsp<\/li>\n<li>Salt- to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Other Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Onion, cut thin lengthwise- 2<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Hunts-Tomato-Paste-12-6oz\/dp\/B001FR6DTO%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAIATJWMSQIU6C4LKQ%26tag%3Dtechpthetechi-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB001FR6DTO\">Tomato Paste<\/a> or fresh tomato chopped- 3 tbsp or 3 fresh tomatoes chopped<\/li>\n<li>Curry leaves- 1 sprig<\/li>\n<li>Cilantro chopped- 1 handful<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Nutiva-Organic-Virgin-Coconut-15-Ounce\/dp\/B001EO5Q64%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAIATJWMSQIU6C4LKQ%26tag%3Dtechpthetechi-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB001EO5Q64\">Coconut oil<\/a>&#8211;
