How to Prepare

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 5 cups of whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons of oil. Gradually add water (about 2 cups) to form a soft dough. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  2. In another bowl, mix 4 cups of grated cheese with 2 finely chopped green chilies
  3. 1 teaspoon of cumin powder
  4. 1 teaspoon of garam masala, and a handful of chopped coriander leaves.
  5. Divide the dough into 20 equal portions. Roll each portion into a small ball.
  6. Take one dough ball, flatten it slightly, and place 2-3 tablespoons of the cheese mixture in the center. Fold the edges over the filling to seal it completely.
  7. Dust the stuffed ball with flour and roll it out gently into a 6-7 inch circle, ensuring the filling doesn't spill out.
  8. Heat a tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the tawa and cook for 1-2 minutes until small bubbles appear.
  9. Flip the paratha, spread 1 teaspoon of ghee or oil on the cooked side, and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown spots appear.
  10. Flip again, apply ghee on the other side, and cook for 30 seconds. Repeat for all parathas.
  11. Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or chutney.
