Paneer Paratha

Now a days every Sunday i am making some stuffed paratha for breakfast.My husband loves to eat alu paratha and paneer paratha.So mainly I make these two types of paratha.This is a complete meal by itself.Serve it with pickle and curd.Sometimes when I am alone at home and feel super lazy for preparing lunch for myself I eat the same paratha in lunch too. :) Here goes the recipe.

Ingredients:

For the Fillling:

1. Grated paneer or chana (I have prepared chana from 1 lit of milk)
2. Coriander leave chopped
3. Coriander powder - 1tsp
4. Cumin powder - 1tsp
5. Green chilly -1 cut into pieces
6. Amchur powder - 1tsp
7. salt and sugar to taste
8. Vinegar - 2-3tbsp

For the dough:

1. Atta
2. salt 
3. oil - 1tsp

Method:

1. 1st you need to prepare the chana.For that heat milk in a pan.Take a cup and put vinegar and same amount of water in it.When the milk starts boiling, add the vinegar solution in milk and stir it continuously.After sometime the chana will be separated.Take a stainer and drain it so that the water will be drained out and you will get the chana.Hang it in a cloth for sometime so that the water drains out completely.
2. Now add coriander leave,green chilly,coriander and cumin powder,amchur powder,salt and sugar to the chana.Add one tbsp atta in it and mix the chana properly.
3. Now make 9 balls from this chana.
4. Make a ball from the dough.It should be as big as the chana ball.
5. Now roll the dough little bit(4'' diameter approx).You should roll it in such a way so that the middle part will be thick and corners will be thin.
6. Now place the chana ball in the middle and then cover the chana ball .You can refer to the below pic.

  7.  Now roll the paneer stuffed dough again.

  8. Heat a tawa and place it on top of that.

  9. When the paratha will change color and puff up then apply 1 tsp oil on it and then flip it.

10. Apply oil on the other side and flip it when it puffs.

11. Keep a dollop of butter on top and server hot.(putting butter is optional, if you are health concious then you can skip it).
