It is popularly called as Paneer Kathi Roll or Paneer Frankie. I have fond memories of having Frankie during my hostel days in Chennai. It is one of my favourite street food. You can have it as a snack or brunch or at any time of the day. The outer wrap is usually made of Maida in street side. But I prefer using Whole wheat for making the outer wrap.

Next you have to make spicy Paneer filling to go inside the wrap and then prepare toppings like chopped onions and pickled green chillies. If you have leftover rotis or chapatis, then making Paneer Roll is very easy. Follow the recipe with step by step instructions and pictures below.
