(makes Approx. 32 Sticks)
1 cup whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
2 tbsp tomato puree
4 tbsp cheese spread
1 tbsp sesame seeds (til)
1/2 tsp fresh yeast
1/2 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp butter

1/4 cup fresh hung curds (chakka dahi)
2 tbsp chopped sweet corn kernels (makai ke dane)
2 tbsp grated carrot
1 tbsp finely chopped celery

Method

For the tomato bread sticks

Combine all the ingredients except the butter and knead into soft dough using enough warm water.
Add the butter and knead again till the dough is smooth and elastic.
Cover with a wet muslin cloth and keep aside for 25 to 30 minutes till the dough proves and is double in volume.
Divide the dough into 32 equal portions and roll each portion on a flat surface to a 150 mm. (6”) long stick.
Place the sticks carefully on a greased baking tray and bake in a pre-heated oven at 150ºc (300ºf) for 30 minutes or till the bread sticks are crisp and golden brown in colour. Keep aside to cool.

For the veg. Cream cheese dip

Combine the paneer and curds and blend in a mixer to a smooth paste.
Pour into a bowl, add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate to chill.

Handy tip:

The water should be warm so that the yeast gets activated. If the water is hot, it will kill the yeast instead of activating it.
