Step-by-Step Recipe

1. Form & Grill the Koftas
   Mix minced chicken, onion, spices, herbs, and breadcrumbs. Shape into small kofta balls. Grill or pan-fry until golden and fully cooked through. This gives a satisfying crispness on the outside and juicy center.

2. Warm Parathas
   Lightly toast the parathas on a hot skillet—this helps soften them while also giving slight char and flavor.

3. Assemble the Wraps
   On each paratha, create a base with a generous layer of garlic mayo. Add lettuce leaves, then place grilled koftas in a row. Top with pickled onions and shredded cheese, if using.

4. Roll and Secure
   Carefully fold the sides in and roll tightly. For easy serving and portability, slice each wrap in half and secure with a toothpick.

5. Serve Immediately
   Best enjoyed warm, with a side of fries or a refreshing salad.

Tips for Success

• Use fresh chicken or good quality mince for juicier koftas.

• Don’t over-mix—handling the mixture too much can make the texture dense.

• Let koftas rest a couple of minutes after grilling to retain juices.

• Warm parathas help blend flavors and make wrapping tidy and neat.
