  1. We need 4 left over rotis to do this recipe. They can be made the previous day.

stuffing for herbed paneer paratha
  1. In a bowl put 1/4 cup finely chopped dill leaves. Dill has a unique flavor profile that is often described as fresh, herbal, and slightly citrusy. This complements the richness of the paneer. Dill leaves are rich in antioxidants Vitamin A and Vitamin C which  prevent or stop cell damage in your body and thus lowers the risk of chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes and heart disease
  2. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped mint leaves (phudina). Mint leaves have a bright, fresh, and cooling flavor profile with a distinct minty aroma. Mint (pudina) being an anti-inflammatory reduces the inflammation in the stomach and shows a cleansing effect.
  3. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped coriander (dhania). Coriander leaves add a bright, fresh, and slightly citrusy flavor profile to the paratha filling. This complements the savory taste of the paneer (Indian cottage cheese). 
  4. Add 1/2 cup grated paneer (cottage cheese). The fresh and aromatic flavors of herbs like cilantro, mint, or fenugreek pair well with the mild taste of paneer. Paneer contains high quality protein and calcium which aids in weight loss.
  5. Add 2 tsp finely chopped green chillies. Green chillies add a touch of heat to the herb paneer paratha.
  6. Add salt to taste. We added 1/4th tsp salt.

    A quick and delicious breakfast idea with a combo of calcium rich paneer and iron rich fresh herbs. Make the rotis the previous night to make cooking breakfast easy.
