Paneer Paratha / Paratha stuffed with Paneer

Ingredients - for the stuffing
Grated paneer-1cup
Finely chopped onion-1
Red chilli flakes-2teaspoons(adjust to your taste)
Amchur powder/ Dry mango powder-1teaspoon
Cumin seeds-1/2teaspoon
Crushed whole coriander seeds-1teaspoon
Salt
Cilantro

For the paratha
Whole wheat flour/Aata-2cups
Warm water-1cup
Salt-1teaspoon
Sugar-2teaspoons
Oil-1teaspoon

Method
Combine the aata, salt, sugar in a bowl, mix it well. Start adding water little by little, and knead the dough.  Knead it for at least 5-10minutes, you will get a soft dough. Apply oil on all the sides, and cover it with  clear wrap paper, keep it aside for half an hour.
Take the grated paneer, onion, chilly flakes, cumin seeds, amchur powder (can be replaced by some lemon juice), salt and cilantro in a bowl. Mix it well and the stuffing is ready.
Divide the paratha dough into lemon size balls, roll them into small circles. Keep a tablespoon of stuffing in the paratha, pull the edges and cover it nicely. (Refer here for stuffing the paratha)
Do the same for all the parathas.

Heat a griddle on medium heat. Roll the stuffed parathas into flad disks, use dry flour for dusting. Be gentle while rolling otherwise the stuffing might come out.
Put them in the griddle, sprinkle little oil, cook on both sides.

Delicious parathas are ready to serve. We had it with mango pickle and plain yogurt.
