Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.75 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Ghee or cooking oil
- 1 cup Paneer, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- 1 unit Green chili, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add water to form a soft and pliable dough. Knead for about 5 minutes and cover with a cloth. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
Prepare the stuffing in a separate bowl: Mix the grated paneer, chopped coriander leaves, chopped green chili, garam masala, cumin seeds, red chili powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt until thoroughly combined.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape them into balls. Similarly, divide the paneer stuffing into 8 equal portions.
Take one dough ball and roll it into a small circle using a rolling pin, about 4 inches in diameter. Place one portion of the paneer stuffing in the center of the circle.
Bring the edges of the dough together to cover the stuffing, pinch to seal, and flatten it gently.
Roll the stuffed dough ball carefully into a circle about 6-7 inches in diameter, taking care not to let the stuffing come out.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium heat. Place the rolled flatbread on the skillet, and cook until bubbles start to appear on the surface, approximately 1-2 minutes.
Flip the flatbread and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes. Brush with ghee or oil on both sides while cooking for crispiness and flavor.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough and stuffing.
Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or your favorite chutney.
