Kathi rolls are famous roll that are said to have originated from Kolkata. It is very famous street food from Kolkata and most popular ones are chicken and mutton Kathi roll. But Since I am a vegetarian who eats eggs I adapted the recipe and use eggs and any of my dry vegetable curry, Paneer curry etc and fried onion and chillies as toppings.
In this version of Kolkata Kathi rolls I have used egg layer. If you are looking for recipe of vegetarian Kolkata Roll where no egg is used at all, this vegetarian Kathi roll recipe will work good for you.
Making Kathi Roll is basically two steps process First is making Paratha and second is making filling for Kathi roll. Since I make Vegetarian Kathi roll I use any dry veggie curry which I make extra in case I am already planning to make Kathi rolls or use whatever leftover is available.
