Paneer Paranta

Paranta is one of my favourite lunch/dinner, as I need not prepare any side dish, I can have them with some pickle or peri-peri sauce. So when I feel lazy and is bored of eating same food, i prepare them. This weekend prepared Paneer Paranta. Though this is not the first time, I loved whole experience again. This time, I prepared for my friends, and they loved them. My husband always loves my Parantas, if not anything else :). Lets see how I prepared them.


Ingredients:
Paneer (grated)
Green chillies -5 -6 (finely chopped)
Finely chopped medium size onion
Coriander - 1 bunch (finely chopped)
Cumin seeds- 1/2 tea spoon
Dhaniya powder - 1 tea spoon
Red Chilli powder - 1-2 pinches (as per taste)
Cumin powder - 1/2 tea spoon
Salt - as per taste
Wheat flour - 3 cups


Procedure:

• Mix the wheat flour with little raw milk and water. Mix it till it becomes a soft dough and add 2 spoons of oil, mix it well. Keep it a side for half an hour to one hour.
• Grate the Paneer with small hole grater. Take about 125 gm of Paneer for 8 Parantas.
• Mix the grated Paneer with the finely chopped Onion, Coriander and green chillies.
• Add the cumin seeds, cumin powder, Dhaniya powder, red chilli powder and salt
• Mix all these properly and keep the mixture a side.
• Now, take the dough and prepare the medium sized roti, keep the 3-4 spoons of the Paneer mixture on the roti, close the ends of the roti to make it a ball. Now roll this slowly to make the paranta. 
• Heat the tawa, keep 1/2 spoon oil on tawa and Cook the Paranta. Keep it a half min and turn the Paranta, add 1 spoon of oil on the other side.Cook it on medium flame till the Paranta becomes golden brown. 

Hot Parantas are ready. Eat with any pickle, or curd.
