I'd never heard of a "frankie" before I checked out your URL - I'd
thought it was an abbreviation for "frankfurter" when I first read your
post :) I did a bit of googling because it does look good. Seems to be
a flat bread such as chapathi with an egg cooked onto it and then
wrapped around some kind of spicy savoury filling - am I right?

So assuming that you can find non-vegetarian frankie recipes, the
problem I guess would be the filling. Seems to me that any sufficiently
dry curry could be used.

I would guess that the paneer goes in with the vegetables - it's perhaps
not mentioned specifically in the directions because it's being
considered to be a vegetable.

(back from a bit of a usenet break - and not vegan at the moment so
interested in vegetarian recipes as well as vegan ones (please no debate
about why I'm not currently vegan; I have my reasons, I'm all discussed
out, and it's off-topic for this group))

As I understand it's a type of street food in Bombay, an egg coated
rolled naan with meat filling. I'd like to experiment with vegetarian
versions, maybe find one that could be sold here at street fairs.

I bet something with chickpeas (garbanzo beans) would be good.
