Kati Rolls Catering
Originating from the vibrant streets of Kolkata, Kati Rolls have become one of India's most beloved exports. At its heart, a Kati Roll is a simple yet flavorful combination: tender, marinated fillings grilled on skewers and wrapped in a warm, flaky paratha or soft roti. Whether it's succulent chicken tikka, spiced paneer, or hearty chickpeas, every bite is a burst of aromatic spices and textures. They are the ultimate "grab-and-go" meal, offering a sophisticated and satisfying alternative to standard sandwiches or wraps.

The Perfect Portable Team Lunch
Kati rolls are a favorite for office catering because they are individually wrapped and easy to eat without a full buffet setup. They offer all the bold, complex flavors of an Indian buffet in a convenient, handheld format that minimizes mess and cleanup.
Diverse Flavors for Every Diet
From tender grilled meats to protein-packed lentils and spiced potatoes, kati rolls are incredibly versatile. You can easily provide a variety of options that satisfy meat-eaters, vegetarians, and vegans alike without needing separate specialty orders.
Authentic Kolkata Street Food
Originally known as a "Kathi" (meaning "stick") roll due to the skewers used to grill the fillings, this dish has evolved into a global street-food staple. Ordering these for your team brings a taste of authentic Indian culinary heritage right to your office.
Customize Your Spread
Many of our partners allow you to mix and match different fillings or provide "Build Your Own" stations where team members can choose their own proteins, chutneys, and toppings. It’s an engaging way to serve lunch that caters to everyone's personal preferences.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Kati Roll?
A Kati Roll is a street-food classic originating from Kolkata. It typically consists of a skewer-grilled ingredient (like chicken tikka, paneer, or spiced veggies) wrapped in a paratha flatbread. It's essentially India's answer to the burrito or wrap, making it a perfect, portable option for team lunches.
How many Kati Rolls should I order per person?
For a balanced team lunch, we recommend a mix of chicken (like Chicken Tikka Masala), vegetarian (like Paneer Tikka or Aloo Gobi), and vegan (like Chana or 7 Vegetable) rolls. Most people find 2 rolls to be a satisfying meal. If you have a hungry group, adding a side of samosas or a fresh salad is always a hit.
Are there vegan and gluten-free options?
Absolutely! Many caterers offer vegan fillings like spiced chickpeas (Chana), cauliflower (Gobi), or mixed vegetables. While traditional parathas sometimes use ghee, many restaurants provide vegan-friendly wraps or can serve the fillings as a "bowl" over rice or salad for gluten-free guests. Check the "What's Included" section or specific item labels for (VG) and (GF) indicators.
