The streets of Kolkata are where this popular Indian street food originated. it is also known by various names like, kati roll, frankie food, frankie recipe or Veg Frankie Recipe. basically salted vegetables are wrapped with chapatti or wrap bread or to which pureed tomatoes and green chutney are added to enhance the taste.
Kathi Kebab was the traditional name for the Frankie dish, and was usually made with layers of paratha. however, there are now many frankie recipe variations, especially as street food.
paneer frankie, in which i added grated paneer and other vegetables, is a recipe i have already shared. I also made paneer kathi roll from the left over chapati. anyway in this recipe i use multi grain wrap which makes it more doughy than regular flour rolls.The Veg Frankie Recipe also has grated paneer, but most of the ingredients are mashed potatoes and capsicum. in addition, other vegetables like green peas, carrots and even mushrooms can also be added. in any case, i have kept it simple with just potatoes and capsicum.
furthermore, some important hints and recommendations for the ideal vegetarian fry recipe. first and foremost, considering that the boiled and mashed potatoes have immense moisture content, add breadcrumbs to mix it. If you are not able to give the shape of a cylinder to the fried vegetables, then only you should add breadcrumbs. in addition, i have used multigrain envelopes as per this recipe. however, leftover parathas, rotis and chapatis can also be used. lastly, if you like spicy veg frankie then you can serve tomato sauce with schezwan sauce over roti, wrap or paratha.
