Kati Roll Recipe

Kati Roll (Credit to Chef Govinda)

Kati roll is street-food originating from Kolkata, India. Its original form was a kati kabab enclosed in a paratha, but over the years many variants have evolved all of which now go under the generic name of Kati Roll. Today, pretty much any filling rolled up in any kind of Indian flatbread is called a kati roll.

To make Kati Roll you need:

3-tbsps sunflower cooking oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 large onion sliced thinly
1 tbsp fine chopped garlic
1 tbsp ginger paste

1 tsp cumin powder

6 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable/ canola/ sunflower cooking oil
1/2 cup Mint yoghurt relish or sweet chili sauce or tomato ketchup

Preparation:

• Heat the oil (3 tbsps) in a deep pan on medium heat. When hot, add the cumin seeds and fry for a minute.
• Add the sliced onions and fry till soft. Add garlic and ginger pastes and fry for 1 minute. Now add all spice powders and fry until oil begins to separate from the masala (spices-onion mix).
• Add the chicken pieces and brown. Add the tomato and salt to taste. Stir well and add 1/2 cup of water. Cook till chicken is tender. There should be almost no gravy at this stage.
• spread the rumali roti or mar kook bread on a clean surface , paste some mint chutney and ketchup   place roughly 2 tbsp of cooked  chicken mixture in the center part of the bread  (how much is a matter of personal choice  )  fold the both ends and rolls tightly , 
• Heat a frying pan on low heat and add a tablespoon of oil to it. While the oil is heating, break an egg in a bowl. Season with salt and fine chop fresh coriander leaves to taste and whisk the egg till fluffy. dip the rolls in the egg mixture   Now quickly put the rolls on to the pan , the still 'wet' egg and allow to cook. The egg will soon cook and 'set'. This is when you turn the rolls over. Cook for 30 seconds and remove from the pan.
