How to make Paneer Tikka Kathi Roll Recipe
To begin making the Paneer Tikka Kathi Roll Recipe, get all the ingredients prepped and ready. If you are making paneer at home you can use our homemade paneer recipe.
To make the paneer tikka, add all the ingredients for Paneer Tikka in a bowl except the paneer and stir them well until combined.
Add the cut paneer pieces into it and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
Heat a teaspoon of oil or ghee in a wok or a skillet, add the paneer mixture and sauté over high heat for four to five minutes, stirring occasionally and cook the paneer until all the marination thickens and forms a coat over the paneer.
Once done, check the salt and spice and adjust to suit your taste. Keep this aside.
Next step is the give the paneer tikka a smoked flavour. Place a large piece of coal on the gas flame and allow it to turn red hot.
Place a katori in the center of the paneer tikka pan, place the red hot coal in the katori/ cup and spoon a little bit of ghee over the coal. It will begin to emit smoke. Cover the pan and allow the paneer tikka to get the smoky flavours.
After about 30 seconds, remove the coal cup and the smoked paneer tikka is ready.
The next step is to make the roti for the rolls. In a large mixing bowl add the flour and salt, give it mix with your fingers. Add a little water at a time and make a smooth dough.
Once you have the dough ready, add a teaspoon of oil over the dough and knead for a couple of minutes, this will give the dough a flaky texture.
To make the wrap for the kathi rolls, divide the dough into 5 large portions. Roll the dough into a large circle by dusting it in flour.
Preheat a skillet on medium heat, place the rolled dough on the skillet and cook it on both sides by smearing ghee over it until it is cooked through and browned and slightly crisp.
The addition of ghee helps in creating a crisp texture to the rolls.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the raw onions, capsicum, lemon, mint leaves and salt. Toss them together.
Place the cooked rotis on a flat surface and place a portion of the filling towards the center, sprinkle some onion capsicum mixture and if you like a little more chaat masala and roll it up tightly.
The Paneer Tikka Kathi rolls are now ready to be served. Proceed the same way with the remaining dough portions and serve.
