Zucchini Paneer Rolls were on my mind for long, so this wasn't an accidental recipe. But what was on my mind actually went with my son in his tiffin box and then I added more twists. Why?
My son wasn't very fond of zucchini , till I recently made him eat it like a cucumber and he love the crunch and that where I thought to combine the crunch and softness of paneer together so they taste yum. So for reasons and more appeal , I changed the cut of the vegetables and also the seasonings a bit. Making it tangy and sweet was my idea of looking at it, while you can choose your of enjoying this crunchy Zucchini Paneer Rolls.
These rolls get more added nutrition with a palak roti or paratha. Since you are packing the tiffin paratha can be preferred but otherwise roti or chapati is good enough.
