    you will find the correct recipe and find the sodium is a lot lower than stated here. I hope this is helpful. I made this and it was just wonderful. I cooked before cutting into strips.

    If this is supposed to be Tandoori, where is the yogurt? True Tandoori is marinated in spiced yogurt. Makes the meat very tender and moist! Why is the sodium content so high?! I can't imagine that to be a correct count! - 1/8/09

    THIS SOUNDS REALLY GOOD EXCEPT FOR THE SODIUM CONTENT BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT WOULD BE SO EXTREMELY HIGH??? ANYONE KNOW-LIKE THE IDEA OF TOPPING WITH GREEK YOGURT AND CUKES-THANKS - 1/7/09

    I wonder if the sodium content listed is actually for all 8 chipatis, not one portion. Recipe looks good and I will try it. - 1/7/09

    i haven't tried this yet but why so much sodium? I think I will make it with fresh turkey. I thought that Tandoori meant that is it is marinated in spiced yoghurt as well as cooked in a tandoori oven- not sure if that is a clay pot "oven" or not. Any Tandoori chef experts out there? - 1/8/08

    wow thats a lot of sodium this is not one I'll be making. - 1/7/08

    Thanks Nancyjac for your eye opening comments. Notice this in most restaurants. If yellow turmeric powder is added to a food, it becomes an Indian curry, if spices as in Indian cooking are added, even the non-marinated in yogurt, not cooked in a clay oven; meats are called Tandoori!! - 11/18/07

    Too much sodium for me to add to a days worth would really bother me.. i might try this with fresh turkey - 11/18/07

    Sounds wonderful, I will be making it - 11/18/07

    This is a fine recipe but there is nothing tandoori about it. Tandoori is a style of cooking using a tandoor, or large clay pot. This is a stir fry. I also don't see how the nutritional data for this can be right. I come up with no more than about 300 calories for 2 wraps. - 11/18/07

    THIS IS A VERY GOOD NEW IDEA FOR DINNERS (OR ANYTIME ! ) - 11/18/07

    Incredible!
    Delicious and simple. I made a sauce of plain yogurt, lime juice, fresh mint, salt and pepper to add moisture and served the turkey on naan instead of tortillas. Yum! - 11/15/07

    I love this recipe-I have made it lots. My very fussy and always hungry boyfriend loves them too. I add plain grrek yoghurt with some grated cucumber into the wraps though-otherwise it is a little dry. - 4/5/07
