Indian street food has been an everlasting tale. Every section of India has its flavor in its boulevards. What’s more, we Indians are fanatic about it regardless. Although, the monsoon season is a delight for a site it does pose danger in terms of cleanliness. This pushed us more towards giving them a shot at home.
Veg rolls also called as veg kathi rolls, veg frankie is a variation of wraps. These are good for tiffin box snacks, lunch otherwise brunch and dinner too if you are bored out of the regular. It is also one of the popular Kolkata’s street food. The preparation from scratch does take time but it’s all worth. If you have ready atta dough, then it is faster to prepare. Since it a veg recipe you can experiment by mixing other veggies like cauliflower, potatoes, peas, French beans, beetroots etc. For this recipe, we added soya chunks, though you can skip it if you want and use tofu or panner.
The recipe is brought to you by me and my lovely sis-in-law Kanupriya Chakraborthy aka Piu. She is a homemaker and loves to cook. So the recipe goes like this:
