CHATTIPATIRI(SIMILAR TO ITALIAN LASAGNA)

Chatti Pathiri is a layered pastry made in the North Malabar and Malabar region, of Kerala, India.

It is made in both sweet and savoury variations. The dish is very similar to the Italian lasagna. Instead of pasta; pastry sheets / pancakes made with flour, egg, oil and water are used. The filling depends on the variation desired. The sweet ones are made with sweetened beaten eggs, nuts and raisins, seasoned with cardamom.
