Kolkata Egg Roll Recipe | Durga Pujo Special | Calcutta Style Egg "Kathi" Roll | Kolkata Street Food

Egg roll is not strictly a kathi roll (more on that later). Yet, it is Kolkata's most popular street food. Folks in Calcutta will happily eat egg rolls for lunch, snack, or dinner. In this recipe we show you the best way to make a dough for the "kathi" roll that yields a flaky yet soft paratha for the roll. We also give you a couple of variations on the filling.
Although the term kathi roll is indiscriminately used now for all edibles that have a wrap and a filling, it is not accurate. A kathi roll has a fried, flaky, paratha wrap, and a filling of meat skewered on a kathi (or stick). The egg roll, however delicious, doesn't have a filling cooked on a kathi. So, it is not a kathi roll.
