This creative dish presents pasta and eggplant in spiral "wheels". The concept likely came from Italian cannelloni but uses Indian spices in the filling. The eggplant slices are grilled first to remove moisture. Some versions include paneer for extra protein. Modern Indian restaurants serve it as a gourmet vegetarian main. The baking creates a golden cheese crust while keeping interiors moist. Nutritionists suggest using whole wheat pasta and reducing cheese for healthier options. The dish represents how global techniques are being adapted to local ingredients and tastes.
