Paneer Paratha is very famous paratha and often served with curd or pickle mostly in every restaurant in India. This is an Indian flatbread which is stuffed with grated paneer or cottage cheese stuffing and seasoned with few spices. A great tiffin box recipe and can be eaten in any meal.
It is always best to make paneer at home as the market bought paneer is not fresh and the taste is also different. Paneer parathas with fresh paneer are very soft and great in taste.

Paneer Paratha | How To Make Paneer Paratha
Ingredient 10-12 Paratha
For Dough
2.5 Cup wheat flour
1/2 Tsp roasted cumin seeds powder
1/2 tsp salt
Warm water
For Stuffing
200 Gram paneer/cottage cheese grated
1 Medium sized onion chopped finely
2 Green chili chopped finely
1/2 Tsp cumin seeds
2 Tbsp coriander leaves chopped finely
1/2 Tsp garam masala
1/2 Tsp red chili powder (powder)
1 Tsp grated ginger
Salt as per taste
Oil to fry parathas
Method
- First of all, make a soft dough using warm water. Keep it aside by covering it. This process makes the dough very soft by the time stuffing is ready.
- In another mixing bowl grate the paneer or cottage cheese. Add all the listed ingredients for the filling and mix well. Adjust salt and chili as per your taste. This is ready to fill.
- Heat the griddle on medium flame.
- Divide dough and stuffing into equal parts. With this quantity, I made 10 parathas.
- Roll out a circle of about 3″ in diameter. Place 3-4 tbsp stuffing and gently close it. Roll this around 6-8″ diameter circle.
- Place it on the griddle. After a few seconds flip it to another side.
- Apply oil and cook from both sides until golden brown. Repeat the same process with the rest of the dough balls.
- Paneer paratha or stuffed cottage cheese flatbread is ready to serve hot with curd, pickle or any chutney/dip.
Note
- Just adjust salt and chilies as per your taste. This paratha/flatbread I find very easy to make.
