Saturday evenings before the telly always requires some kind of finger food- Yup, something finger looking good! Introducing, Paneer kathi rolls- Cottage cheese cooked with Indian spices and tucked in rotis/flat Indian bread. Well, to make things easier I used tortilla soft wrap and tucked my paneer for a quick snack.
What do we need?
1 cup paneer (cottage cheese)
one medium sized onion sliced
one green bell pepper (chopped)
1 tomato (chopped)
3-4 tortilla wraps
1 tomato (chopped)
3-4 tortilla wraps
I gave it a twist by marinating my cottage cheese in a yoghurt base-
For marination, we need-
1/4 cup yoghurt
red chilli powder 1 tsp
turmeric powder 1/4 tsp
ginger-garlic paste (1 tsp)
garam masala (1 tsp)
kasoori methi leaves (1 tsp)- Dry fenugreek leaves
gram flour (1 tsbp)
How did I put together?
Mix all the ingredients for marinade and toss in the cottage cheese. Set it aside for half an hour till paneer absorbs the spices. In a wok saute onions, bell peppers and tomatoes. Add paneer mixture and adjust salt. Cook on a high flame for 5 to 8 minutes. Cook till the mixture is dry and set it aside. Spread the paneer mixture on tortilla wrap and roll up tightly. Enjoy! You can choose to just saute cottage cheese without the marination and use it in your wrap. Get creative and add ingredients according to your choice.
