Egg Roll is one of my favorite recipes. While i am personally not much of an egg fan my kids used to have eggs. Egg rolls were a quick and tasty way to get nutrition into children. Eggs are rich is proteins , the filling we can ensure is full of veggies and the wrap is whole grain wheat. Its literally an explosive package of health nutrition in one go. Proteins, Carbohydrates,Vitamins and Fiber !

Having spent a lot of time in West Bengal a state in the eastern side of India. Egg Rolls are one of the most popular snacks in the state. You can get a variety of rolls even in the smallest of vending shops. Today let me show you a Egg-Vegetable-Tofu roll.

Tips

I have used potatoes and paneer - cottage cheese to make the fillings , one can easily use green veggies to make it healthier, Alternatively one can also use meat and other animal proteins in case their diet supports the same.

I use homemade Roti (indian flatbread) to wrap the roll. You can also use ready made tortillas that you pick up in the super market.

I have used mustard oil to cook this recipe to ensure the traditional Bengali flavor for the rolls. However you can use the fat of your choice.
