My new recipe i.e. Veggie cottage cheese rolls is a starter which looks like spring roll but there is a twist of taste in the filling . The stuffing consists of tandoori paneer and other veggies with smoothness of melted cheese in between.
Try this starter for your guests and I am sure people will be impressed by you.
It is deep fried but it can also be baked if you are calorie conscious.
I am using spring roll sheets but if it's not available nearby you then u can also make fresh dough of all purposes flour I.e maida and use this stuffing.
If u hav left over chapatis then you can make wraps out of it
Which will also be hit and a power pack meal for your kids.
So here we go:
