Indian chef cooks Kolkata kathi roll with a twist at MasterChef Australia

Depinder Chhibber, an Indian-origin home chef has become everyone’s favourite on MasterChef Australia’s latest season.

The chef recently paid tribute to Indian street food by cooking Kolkata Kathi rolls.

In an Instagram post, she wrote, “Street food is honestly my jam. Today I travelled to West Bengal to get some inspiration.”

Chhibber added a twist and made the dish with  crayfish and deep lobster masala along with egg, pickled onions, mint, coriander chutney, fresh carrots, capsicum, and coriander leaves.

She served the rolls with mint and coriander chutney as well as tomato kasundi.

She further mentioned her love for making kathi rolls at home with leftover meat, paneer and sometimes egg.

She wrote, “One of my favourites to make at home for the family with leftover meats, paneer and sometimes egg. This dish was invented by the Nizam’s restaurant many decades ago particularly using lamb kebab skewers. Today Kathi rolls have been reinvented time and time again.
