Veg Paneer Kathi roll

Introduction:
Kathi rolls are basically from kolkata and a very famous snack. It's easy to make and much more easy to eat. That's why it's one of my favourite food while i'm travelling. Kathi roll can be made out of any vegetable filling. I'm telling you one filling made up with paneer.I'll give you tips at the end of the recipe to make it more easy.

Ingredients:
For filling
Cottage cheese(cut into cubes): 250 gm
Green Capsicum(Long slices): 2 cups
Tomatoes(Long slices): 2 Cups
Green chilli: 1 tsp
Ginger garlic paste: 1 tsp
Fresh curd: 1 cup
Gram flour(besan): 2 big spoon
Red chilli powder: 1tsp
Turmeric powder: 1/4 tsp
Corriander powder: 1/2 tsp
Garam masala: 1/2 tsp
Chaat masala: 1 tsp
Dry Kasoori methi: 3 tsp
salt: as per taste
cumin seeds: 1 tsp
Oil: 2 tsp
Green corriander leaves: for garnishing
For Kathi rolls:
Wheat Flour: 2 Cups
Refined flour: 1 cup
Oil: 1 tsp
Salt: 1tsp

Preparation time: 30 mins
cooking time: 10 mins
Serves for: 4 persons

Method:
Take all the ingredients for the rolls into a big bowl. Add sufficient water to make a nice smooth dough out of it. cover it with a wet cloth and keep aside.

Now for preparing the filling, take a bowl. Add curd and besan. mix all the spices into it. Now add paneer and sliced tomatoes along with kasoori methi, ginger garlic paste and green chillies and keep aside for 10-15 mins.

In a pan, take oil for saute the capsicum. when oil is heated up, add cumin seeds and then the sliced capsicum. saute till the capsicum become soft.Now add the paneer mixture and cook till the water is soaked and mixture becomes dry. put off the flame and add corriander leaves.

Now to make the rolls, take small bowl out of the dough and roll into chapatis. roast both sides like a parantha. It means apply oil on both sides while roasting. Make all rolls in this way. Now take some paneer filling and put it into the middle of rolls. Roll it tightly, such that filling does not come out. You can fix a toothpick to seal the roll or pack it directly into aluminium foil. The best way for serving them is to cut the rolls into two halves.Serve with green chutney or tomato sauce.

So yummy kathi rolls are ready to go with you on any holiday.

TIPS:
1. You can also add onions to it.
2. Make sure that all the vegetables are cut into same shape. This is the basic of all the recipes. It adds beauty to any kind of food preparation.
3. You can make any kind of filling as per your liking. for example mix veg filling, Potato filling, Egg bhurji etc.
4.The rolls can also be made out of refined flour only. just to keep it healthy, I make it with wheat flour.
5.The rolls should be thin in thickness.
6. You can also spread a layer of cheese over the rolls, before putting the filling. It'll enhance the taste many times.
