Kati roll is a street-food originating from Kolkata, India. Originally kati means stick in bengali and kababs very prepared on the stick and then the kababs were used as a stuffing within the paratha and the generic name of Kati Kabab or Kati Roll got stuck with it. The street vendors have a lot of variations with diffent fillings and sauces.
For my version of kati roll I used paneer, bell pepper, onion blended with minimum spices and flavored with pickle for the stuffing. This is a very simple version which can be prepared very quick and easily. For the masala I used crushed coriander and cumin which gives it a unique flavor and the magic ingredient is the pickle (achar) found in every indian home.
Ingredients
- 6 roti ( I used some rotis which are in fridge)
- 1 cup diced paneer (cottage cheese)
- 3/4 cup diced bell pepper
- 3/4 cup sliced onion
- 3/4 cup tomato
