Instructions
Preparing the Filling
- Heat oil in a pan on medium heat. Add onion if using and saute until soft. Add capsicum and carrot, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly tender.

Assembling the Wrap

Packing
- Wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil to hold its shape, and pack with fruit on the side.
Recipe Notes
Tiffin Pairing
A piece of fruit on the side keeps the meal light and balanced alongside the protein-rich wrap.Make-Ahead Tip
This recipe assumes a plain roti is already made or left over from a previous meal, which makes it a quick option on a busy morning. The filling itself also comes together in a few minutes.Quick Swap
Use grated mild cheese instead of paneer, or swap capsicum for any vegetable you already have on hand.Allergen Note
Contains dairy (paneer) and wheat/gluten (roti).Spice Note
Red chilli powder is optional - the filling is mild and tasty without it too.Packing Tip
Wrapping tightly in parchment paper or foil helps the wrap hold its shape and stay neat until lunchtime.Recipe Nutrition
