Serves: 3

Ingredients

250g grated Paneer

½ chopped Onion

2 chopped Green chilli

1 tsp Coriander powder

1tsp Anardana

½ tsp Chilli powder

½ tsp Turmeric powder

Salt to taste

1 sheet Puff pastry

1 beaten Egg

Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200℃. Add paneer, onion, green chilli, coriander powder, anardana, chilli powder, and turmeric in a bowl. Mix well.

Step 2

Spread the filling evenly over the thawed pastry sheet. Roll the sheet, seal the edges and brush with egg wash. With a sharp knife, slice the roll into 2-3 inch slices.

Step 3

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the slices on the tray. Lightly press them with a flat bottom glass and place them in the oven.

Step 4

Bake them for 15-20 minutes or till golden brown. Then take them out of the oven and let them rest for 5-6 minutes. Then serve with a hot and spicy sauce of your choice.

Tips

1. Before grating the paneer, you can keep it in the freezer for 30 minutes for the best results.

2. Seal the roll tightly, so the filling doesn't come out while cutting into the roll.

3. For a flaky crust, brush the roll properly with egg wash.
