Ingredients
For the Filling
- 1/4 cup Paneer Cut into thin strips
- 2 tbsp Capsicum Thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp Onion Thinly sliced, optional - see Quick Swap
- 1 pinch Turmeric Powder
- 1 pinch Red Chilli Powder Optional - see Spice Note
- 1 pinch Chaat Masala Optional
- 1 pinch Salt Or as required
- 1 teaspoon Oil
For the Frankie
- 1 Whole Wheat Roti Or plain paratha, freshly made or leftover
Instructions
Preparing the Filling
- Heat oil in a pan on medium heat. Add onion if using and saute until soft. Add capsicum and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add paneer, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, chaat masala and salt, and toss gently for 2 to 3 minutes until the paneer is lightly coated and warmed through.
Assembling the Frankie
- Place the roti or paratha on a flat surface. Spoon the filling along the centre and roll tightly into a Frankie-style wrap, folding in one end to prevent the filling from falling out.
Packing
- Wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil to hold its shape, and pack with cucumber slices and grapes on the side.
Recipe Notes
Tiffin Pairing
Cucumber and grapes add crunch and natural sweetness alongside the flavourful paneer filling.Make-Ahead Tip
This recipe assumes a plain roti or paratha is already made or left over from a previous meal, which makes it quick to put together when you have one on hand.Quick Swap
Use grated mild cheese instead of paneer, or swap capsicum and onion for any vegetables you already have available.Allergen Note
Contains dairy (paneer) and wheat/gluten (roti or paratha).Spice Note
Red chilli powder and chaat masala are both optional - the paneer filling is mild and tasty without them too.Packing Tip
Wrapping tightly in parchment paper or foil, the way street-food frankies are served, keeps this neat and mess-free in the tiffin box.Related Posts You May Like
