Frankly, Frankies are India’s popular flavorful street food, also known as the Mumbai Burrito, Bombay Burrito, or Roti Wrap. It can be made with any stuffing but generally, it contains a cutlet with sauteed veggies, pickled onions, mint coriander sauce (Hari chutney), and of course an egg layer under the flat-bread.
