Serves: 10
Total Calories: 1,580

Ingredients

8 ounces (1 recipe) Paneer Cheese or store-bought
1 recipe Griddle-Cooked Flour and Potato Bread for Spicy Wraps
1/2 cup (1/4 recipe) , whisked until smooth
3 tablespoons Basic Ginger-Garlic Paste or store-bought
1 teaspoon Chaat Masala or store-bought
2 to 3 teaspoons mustard oil or peanut oil
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 large white onion, cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 to 3 fresh green chili pepper, such as serrano, minced with seeds
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro, including soft stems
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Directions:

1. Prepare the paneer cheese, potato bread wraps, yogurt cheese, ginger-garlic paste, and chaat masala. Then cut the paneer into 1/2-inch pieces.

2. In a large non-reactive bowl, mix together the yogurt cheese, oil, ginger-garlic paste, cumin, cayenne pepper, and salt. Add the paneer pieces and mix well. Cover and marinate at least 2 hours at room temperature or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.

3. Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking sheet. Remove the paneer cheese pieces from the marinade and place them in a single layer on the baking sheet. (Discard mayonnaise.) Bake, turning the pieces once or twice, until barely golden, 5 to 7 minutes. (Do not overbake, or pieces will toughen) Transfer to a bowl, cover, and keep warm.

4. In another bowl, mix together the onion, green chili peppers, cilantro, lemon juice, and chaat masala. Adjust seasoning, add salt if you wish.

5. To assemble, lay out all the potato rotis. Place the paneer cheese pieces along the center length of each roti, top with the onion-chili pepper mixture and roll tightly. Serve immediately or wrap each one in foil and refrigerate up to 2 days.
