Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Low-fat paneer
- 0.25 cup Low-fat yogurt
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
- 1 small Green chili
- 0.5 teaspoons Cumin powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Olive oil (or any light cooking oil)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, low-fat yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead the mixture into a soft, pliable dough. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
In another bowl, crumble the low-fat paneer. Finely chop the coriander leaves and green chili, then add them to the paneer. Mix in cumin powder, red chili powder, and a pinch of salt. Combine well to create the filling.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Roll out one ball on a lightly floured surface into a 4-inch circle.
Place 2 tablespoons of the paneer filling in the center of the circle. Bring the edges of the dough together to seal the filling inside, then gently flatten the stuffed ball.
Carefully roll out the stuffed ball into a 6-inch diameter flatbread, being cautious not to let the filling leak out.
Heat a non-stick skillet or flat griddle over medium heat. Place the flatbread on the hot skillet and cook for 2 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form.
Flip the flatbread and drizzle a small amount of olive oil around the edges. Cook for 2 more minutes or until golden brown spots appear on the underside.
Repeat with the remaining dough and filling to make 8 stuffed flatbreads.
Serve the low-fat stuffed paneer flatbreads warm with a side of yogurt or chutney for a wholesome meal.
