Cardoz prepares Frankie (foodnetwork.com)
[1] Chef Floyd Cardoz of [2] Tabla Restaurant in NYC prepared a [3] Vegetable “Frankie” for host Rachael Ray on a recently aired episode of the Food Network’s $40 a Day: New York City. Ray highlighted the restaurant’s lunch menu for including several items under $10.
It looks like a wrap, but I wondered what exactly is a frankie? It turns out that it’s not a [4] falsetto, but sounds like more of an “Indian burrito,” (that would be distinct from a [5] “Punjabi burrito”). [6] Slashfood describes the frankie as “an Indian street-type food made of a thin bread similar to a tortilla that is coated with egg and fried.” Have you had one? Feel free to spill the beans on frankies in the comments.
