For making the parathaPress the dough ball into a thick disk and stuff it with the paneer filling and seal it shut. Generously flour your work surface, and press the sealed ball of dough to be slightly flatter.Roll out the paratha with a rolling pin lightly keeping in mind to not puncture it, dust off the excess atta and plop onto the pan. Flip it twice to make sure it’s cooking on both sides and drizzle some ghee/oil on top, by now, it should start puffing. Once it’s perfectly cooked, take it off the heat and serve hot! |
