Kati roll is a street food delicacy that is liked to be enjoyed at home. How to make Kati roll at home is explained in this recipe with step by step pictures.

📖 Recipe Card
Kati roll
Ingredients
For Parathas:
- 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup maida
- salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon oil
- milk as needed to knead the dough
For the stuffing:
- 3/4 cup mixed vegetables I used carrot, capsicum and beans & Chop it lengthwise
- a pinch turmeric powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala powder or chat masala
- 1 teaspoon ginger green chilli paste See recipe below
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoon green chutney
- 1 onion finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon oil
- salt to taste
Instructions
To make Ginger Green Chilli Paste :
- Take a small piece of ginger and 1 green chilli, grind it to a smooth paste with little salt and your ginger green chilli paste is ready.
- To prepare the parathas:
- Mix salt, wheat flour and maida.
- Add milk slowly to form a soft dough.
- Keep covered and let it rest till the stuffing is done
To prepare the stuffing :
- Heat oil, add onions and saute until golden brown.
- Add ginger chilli paste and saute for a min then add all the veggies, saute for 3mins or until cooked till the veggies are crunchy.
- Add turmeric, garam masala powder and lemon juice mix well.
- Cook keeping lid closed for 2more minutes and switch off.
Making Wrap:
- Pinch a lemon sized ball from the dough and flatten it like we do for chapathis. Dust flour if needed.
- Then heat a dosa pan,once it is hot place the prepared parathas and cook on both sides.
- Likewise prepare all the parathas and keep aside.
- At the time of serving, add little oil and toast the prepared parathas .
- Then spread 1/2 tablespoon of green chutney, add a heaped tablespoon of stuffing(either paneer bhurji/veg stuffing).
- Then gently seal it from the bottom then close it tightly from the both the sides(left & right) to form a roll as shown in the pic(Rolling this way avoids stuffing from dropping out)
- Then wrap the lower part of the parathas with butter paper/silver foil and enjoy ur kati rolls.
Notes
- The stuffing idea is endless, you can even make chicken vegetable stuffing. You can also make paneer tikka kathi roll.
- You can make the stuffing and parathas ready the previous night and just assemble the wrap, there you go with your yummy, filling on the go wraps for breakfast.
- Serve with tomato sauce or can be had as such itself also.
- The thickness of each parathas can be slightly thicker also.
- I love paneer bhurji in wraps and rolls. So reserved little for this sake itself and made these rolls.
- You can keep the stuffing in middle and close from both the sides and prick a tooth pick in the middle and serve but wrapping in the above said method avoids filling from coming out and its easy to hold too.

Picture updated from Instagram. I did not add green chutney and raw onions as I packed it for her lunchbox, just sprinkled chat masala powder over the stuffing and wrapped it.
I love paneer bhurji in wraps and rolls. So reserved little for this sake itself and made these rolls. You can keep the stuffing in middle and close from oth the sides and prick a tooth pick in the middle and serve but wrapping in the above said method avoids filling from coming out and its easy to hold too 🙂 The recipe is the same for paneer bhurji too just filling differs and you can find paneer bhurji recipe here.
These are mildly spicy making it perfect for kids…You can also serve with home made white butter .

Hi Sharmi,
loved ur kati roll.but can u just explain the sealing portion alone one more time.if we roll from the bottom of the kati also how it's possi to seal tightly so that the stuffing wont come out.as this is completely new to me.
http://sabdhaskitchen.blogspot.com/
Sharmilee! :)
@Sudha : See the tiled pic for the steps for rolling. Just fold it at the bottom with the two sides folded as shown in the pic then wrap a butter paper/silver foil around so that it is sealed completely and is easy to hold…Hope this helps!
Sharmilee! :)
@Sudha : And if your chapathi is big then fold it from the bottom first then start rolling from one end tight enough to hold the stuffing till you reach the other end – This will ensure ur roll is sealed tightly.

Sharmi,
If we pack this for lunch, will it be nice ?
Won’t the rotis become soaked with the stuffing?
Please let me know.
Sharmilee J
I am regularly giving rolls for my daughter…it will not be that soggy make the stuffing a little dry.
