    Raja Kebab is a stuffed paneer potato filling in papad that is deep-fried and served in bite-sized pieces. These make a fantastic party starter and delicious evening snack.

    When I wanted to make Awadhi Thali or the Mixed North Indian Thali, Vaishali suggested this Raja Kebab that was her restaurant. This is stuffed papad with a filling of spiced paneer potato mix. Handling the water-soaked papad and then deep-frying it is an awesome dish.

    I was planning on all other dishes and completely forgot that I didn’t have the papads stocked. There was a time when I used to regularly buy the papads but after a while, we stopped having them and I no longer buy them.

    So when Amma went shopping I told her that I need some papads. When she asked small or large, I assumed the quantity and said small. Only after getting it, I realize I need the larger ones. I had to make last-minute shopping to pick up the larger papads.

    I made some for the thali and the rest I saved for my colleagues. Everybody enjoyed it and said this was really restaurant special!

    We are doing the BM#88, Week 2 and I am sharing some Bite-Sized Food for Kids!

    The thali has delicious dishes like Makhmali Paneer, Gulab Phirni

    In a bowl, take all the ingredients listed for stuffing and mix them together

    For Deep Frying.

    Soak the papad in water just by dipping it and quickly removing it to a plate.
    Make sure the papad is intact.
    Divide the stuffing into balls.
    Place one ball on the wet papad. Gently close from one side and repeat from all sides to make a roll
    Check to ensure all the sides are closed.
    Heat a kadai with oil. When it is hot, gently drop the stuffed papad and fry on all sides.
    When it is golden on all sides, drain to a kitchen towel.
    Cut into smaller pieces and serve with ketchup.

      As soon as I started reading your post, I asked Sruiti whether we have papad at home. Unfortunately only smaller ones and that too broken. Hmm, I have to wait for our next shopping. These stuffed papads look amazing and I am bookmarking this to try asap.

      Raja kebab looks seriously very royal and interesting. Though handling papads is not an easy job, u did justice with your cooking skills Valli. Awesome papad rolls.

      O these are called raja kabab? It's called stuffed papad here. Loved to eat them then. Handling wet papad is difficult. Kiddos Valli

      Perfectly made raja kebabs. I once tried stuffing papad and frying them but failed as I was not able to control how long to soak the papad.. some cracked some became too soggy.

      Using papad as a wrapper is such a nice idea! Would make a great starter for a party. Wonder if it can be baked.
