INGREDIENTS

(I made a mini roll cake in a very small frying pan. But for you guys, here am sharing the ingredients for a large cake roll)

Egg                       -  2 nos, big
Cake flour             - 4 tbsp (recipe given below)
Cumin powder      - half tsp
Cardamom powder- a pinch (to get rid of egg taste)
Pepper powder      - half tsp
Oil                         - 2 tbsp + ( 1 tsp for greasing the pan)

For chicken filling
Onion                                - 1, sliced finely
Green chilies                     - 2 nos
Ginger                               - a small piece
Garlic                                - 3 cloves
Minced chicken                - half a cup
Chili powder                     - 1 tsp
Garam masala powder      - half tsp
Chopped coriander leaves - 2 tbsp
Pizza sauce  - 1 tsp, ( or garlic mayo or chili paste )
Salt
Oil

PREPARATION















  • Prepare the spicy chicken filling. You can stuff with your favorite filling, but it must be spicy and aromatic.
  • In a pan, heat oil and saute onion until lightly golden. Make a paste of ginger, garlic and green chilies. Add this paste to the sauteed onion along with some salt. Mix well. Then add chili powder, garam masala powder, and chopped coriander leaves. Saute well. Then add the minced chicken (cook the boneless chicken pieces with turmeric powder, chili powder, salt and then pulse it in a grinder for a second or two). Combine well and cook for few minutes sauteing continuously. Set aside.
  • Make the cake roll in a frying pan.  
  • Add eggs in a bowl along with pepper powder, cumin powder,  salt and beat well using an electric mixer until it turns white and fluffy (check the pics given above). You must beat it well.
  • To this, add the sifted cake flour (recipe is given below ).  Fold it gently until it is well combined. (do not beat the cake flour or do not add more cake flour than required ). 
  • Then add oil and cardamom powder (to get rid of egg flavor). Mix well with a spoon.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan of large size. Then make the flame to medium low.
  •  Grease the pan well with oil. Pour the prepared batter and just swirl immediately. Cover with an aluminum foil and then cook over a low flame for 5 to 6 minutes or until the top of the cake roll becomes dry. Do not cook for long.
  • Remove from flame gently and transfer it a cling film. wrap it and gently roll it tightly. Keep refrigerated for 15 minutes. 
  • When done, take it out and remove the cling film. Open the cake roll. Cut off the ends diagonally. 
  • Add a tsp of pizza sauce or chili sauce or garlic mayonnaise to the chicken filling. This is to make a creamy filling. Dry fillings will come out easily once the cake roll is sliced. So use a creamy filling of your choice instead of dry fillings.
  • Spread this creamy filling over the cake roll. Then roll up the cake very tightly (important) with care.
  • Wrap in a cling film and keep them fridge to set (for 30 minutes). This gives a perfect slice.  OR  for those who prefer warm chicken cake rolls, let the chicken set aside for few hours at room temperature before slicing. 
  • Once done, cut both the ends and then slice it.


CAKE FLOUR RECIPE

You can substitute the store bought cake flour with this simple two ingredients. 
  • Take one leveled cup (210 ml) of All purpose flour. From this, remove two tablespoons of all purpose flour. And then add two tablespoons of cornflour/cornstarch back in instead of the removed All purpose flour. So we get one cup of CAKE FLOUR.
one cup of cake flour  = one cup of All purpose flour - two tablespoons of All purpose flour + 2 tablespoons of cornflour.
  • Then sift them together to distribute the cornflour well before using in into the cake batter.
  • Cornstarch/cornflour will inhibit the formation of gluten when added to all-purpose flour. This gives the structure and sponginess to your cake.
one leveled cup of Maida / All purpose flour

Remove 2 tbsp of Maida / All purpose flour from this cup

Add 2 tbsp of cornflour back instead of the removed Maida / All purpose flour

Now here is the one leveled cup of unsifted Cake Flour

Sift them well

Here is the substitution for CAKE FLOUR
