I was thinking so hard yesterday for dinner ideas. Sometimes it happens, your head go blank and you will be looking for inspiration. I know I had a packet of paneer, so I am sure that it is going to be something using that. Hubby told me to make roti and paneer curry. But I was quite bored to make the same thing again and again. So I decided to use the both and create a new dish.

Cottage cheese or paneer makes a great vegetarian alternative for wraps and rolls. It is made with milk. Paneer absorbs the spices and yogurt which you marinade it with. Grilling the paneer adds a smoky flavor to it.

Yogurt
Yogurt or curd tenderises the meat or paneer you add and gives a hint of tang to the dish.

Fillings | Toppings
Fresh vegetables like sliced onions, tomatoes, shredded lettuce, bell peppers can be used in wraps which adds a crunch.

@Unknowni think u must have over cooked it, so it must have got hard. You have to cook them lightly, so they will retain their softness, since they are very thin
