"Kati rolls are said to have been invented in Kolkata, the former Calcutta, the capital of West Bengal. These rolls wrap a flaky paratha around a choice of fillings, often including chicken, lamb patties, chana, mixed vegetables, shrimp, paneer, and an egg, which may arrive annealed to the interior surface of the paratha. Two great places serving them duke it out on Macdougal Street: Thelewala (where they’re called nizami rolls) and Kati Roll Co, which boasts several other branches around town. A favorite is the achari paneer roll at the latter, supplementing the fresh cheese with a fragrant and acidic mixed pickle." - Robert Sietsema
