Cook the Filling:
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

Assemble the Rolls:

Tips for the Perfect Baby Corn Paneer Kathi Rolls
- Customizing Spice Levels: Adjust the chaat masala and add green chilies if you prefer spicier rolls.
- Achari Mayo Substitute: If achari mayo isn’t available, mix plain mayo with a teaspoon of pickle juice for a similar tangy taste.
- Vegetable Variations: Feel free to add other veggies like zucchini or colored bell peppers for more texture and flavor.
