thanks for the tips..
yes at the moment i just wrap in foil, but then when i eat it - it all falls about the place, just like dixie dean!
just curious - how do people roll theirs? do you fold up the bottom then fold in both sides? or do you roll it several times? silly really i know!0 -
mayo mixed with a little lime pickle, sliced cooked meat & salad leaves
left-over fajitas & greek yogurt
mayo with horseradish sauce, roast beef, salad
along the same lines as Nelski's idea ... cold meat, thinly sliced cheddar, roll up & put on the George Foreman for 3-4 minutes (making sure the open end, if you've left one, is up) or in a dry pan for a couple of minutes each side
folding? we usually only eat them at home, so just fold up the bottom & then roll from one side (still get in a mess though :rolleyes:)
I watched them do it in a sanwdich bar, they folded up the top & bottom, then rolled from one side, then cut it in half diagonally
but the wraps they had seemed a lot more 'flexible' than the ones you can buy0 -
cling film the night before seems to worth a try.
My first ones were with Asda tortillas, which seems to be abit on the dryside so kept breaking up when trying to roll, but bought some sainsburys ones last nite - just had it for lunch - they are very nice and soft and roll better and actually taste better! (luckily they were on offer for 2 pks for £1.60)
some of those options sound delish, thks0 -
pooky - my ds will love the tuna one!
i have just bought the packets of chicken (tikka, chinese) - so far - they are quiet expensive, does anyone make their own flavoured chicken thats cheaper?0 -

1 Tablespoon ground cummin
1 Tablespoon paprika
1/2 - 1 teaspoon chilli powder
1 Tablespoon turmeric
1/2 - 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (if using ready-ground, halve the amount)
1-2 teaspoons salt (try it with less first)
3 cloves garlic, peeled & mashed to pulp
6 Tablespoons lemon juice
3-6 chicken breast fillets, cut into serving-sized pieces
3 Tablespoons oil
in a bowl, mix everything except chicken
add chicken & mix to coat with marinade
refrigerate & leave at least 3 hours, or overnight if you can
grill under high heat till chicken is done (or George Foreman it)
serve with lemon/lime wedges, indian bread, salad & yogurt
or really nice in a wrap with lime pickle mayo & salad
adapted from a Madhur Jaffrey recipe0 -

aren't they already cooked if their in cans so you can just open and use them?0
