Paneer Paratha

Paneer Paratha is one of the most popular parathas in North India.

Paneer or cottage cheese is grated and mixed with spices and rolled with the dough made from wheat flour.

For a starter, it could be a bit tricky to roll the Paneer parathas, but it definitely gets better with experience. To start with, Aloo parathas might be an easier option.


Ingredients:

Grated Paneer  - 2 cups
Grated Ginger - small piece
Chili Powder - 1 tsp
Cumin Powder - half tsp
Amchur powder - half tsp
Kasuri methi (optional)
Salt
Wheat flour - 4 cups
Water

Procedure:
1. Add water and pinch of salt to wheat flour to knead it into a dough. Add some oil while preparing the dough. I have also added a pinch of kasuri methi. Once the dough is ready, cover it and keep it aside for at least 20 mins.
2. Take a bowl, and add the grated paneer, chili powder, cumin powder, amchur powder and salt and mix well.
3. Prepare small round balls of this mix. This will be used for the stuffing.
4. Next prepare small balls of the prepared dough.
5. Take one ball of the dough, and roll it to form a small circle. Stuff it will the prepared stuffing and roll it to form a round paratha.
8. Put it on a hot tava and apply oil and fry it for some time. Turn it over and apply oil on the other side.

Serve hot Panner Paratha with curd and pickle.
