Add 1/4 cup olive oil to a pan on high flame.

Add onions and cook until golden brown.

Add tomatoes, ginger, and garlic; cook on high flame for a few minutes.

Add spices (fenugreek, curry powder, paprika, turmeric) and cook for 3-4 minutes, adding a dash of water to prevent burning.

Add chicken strips and stir gently; cook for 10 minutes.

Lower the flame, cover with a lid, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

Add bell pepper and cook on low flame with the lid on to steam the peppers until soft.

Fill each tortilla wrap with 2-3 chicken strips and some peppers, rolling tightly.

Add roughly 3/4 of a jar of bolognese sauce over the rolled wraps.

Sprinkle cheese on top, adjusting quantity based on personal preference.

Sprinkle oregano on top and bake for 20 minutes at gas mark 5 or until cheese is golden brown.
