Paneer Paratha (Cottage cheese Flatbread )

Earlier I had posted Bathua Paratha and Cauliflower Paratha, here is another version where stuffing is made up of cottage cheese mixed with spices. A very healthy and delicious preparation can be eaten with varied combination of yoghurt, pickle in breakfast or in lunch according to your need. My husband love to eat it with coffee. It’s crunchy texture followed by softness of cheese filled with spices will definitely make you say hmmm yummy. So let’s start the recipe. Yum.
