How to Make Cheesy Spinach Roulade
HideShow Media1.
Mix together the paneer, salt, basil, black pepper, egg and bread and knead the mixture till smooth.
2.
Dust a sheet of plastic or aluminum foil with some flour and pat the paneer mixture over it into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
3.
Squeeze out the spinach and spread it in a layer over the paneer, leaving a slight margin all around. Sprinkle some salt over it.
4.
Roll the two things together like a scroll as firmly as you can, with the support of the foil. Refrigerate for an hour at least.
