Quick Paneer Parathas ~ Wholesome Meal for Kids Day 2!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 3 - 4 tsp Paneer grated
- 1/2 tsp Red Chilli Powder
- Salt to taste
- A Pinch Turmeric Powder
- 1/2 tsp Garam Masala (opt)
- 1 tsp Ghee / Clarified Butter
- Cooking Oil for cooking the parathas
Instructions
- In a bowl, take the wheat flour, along with grated paneer, salt, chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala and ghee. Knead well to get a pliable dough. Let it rest for 5 - 10 mins.
- Heat a tawa / skillet, reduce to medium heat when the skillet is hot.
- Meanwhile, divide the dough into equal balls, preferable small ones as kids live to handle tiny parathas. Dust the ball with flour and roll out to small discs.
- Grease the pan with little oil so that the parathas don't stick to the pan. Place the rolled out parathas on the pan, when you see it bubbling out, flip to the other side and cook. Spread little oil on both sides and cook evenly.
- This can be eaten as such or with Curds/ pickle.
Notes
- Since you have added ghee to the dough, you need not add lots of oil. Also you need to cook this on relatively high flame, as else the parathas tend to become hard as the dough has ghee in it.
- Instead of ghee you can add curds/yogurts for getting soft parathas.
- Make it more spicy by adding cumin powder, fennel seeds or even coriander powder. Depends on how much spice your kid eats.
- Variations can be by adding finely chopped or grated onions and corianders too.
