kitchen roll
Absorbent paper sheets
Kitchen roll is the British term for what Americans call paper towels—a roll of absorbent paper sheets used for wiping up spills, drying hands, or cleaning surfaces in the kitchen.
The sheets tear off along perforated lines.
I grabbed some kitchen roll to mop up the spilled juice.
The term is standard in British English, while paper towels dominates in American usage.
