Paneer Stuffed Pooris

Paneer is fresh Cottage Cheese, most often used in South Asia. An all time favourite and a great source of Calcium, Phosphorous, Vitamins, minerals and proteins. Builds stronger teeth, helps burn fat. It protects against heart disease by lowering the fat deposition in the arteries and prevents cancer.
There are many more health benefits of Paneer, but I have listed only few out here. On the whole Paneer is a purely vegetarian healthy and tasty product.
You have many delicious paneer recipes.
Today I shall post stuffed Paneer Poori



INGREDIENTS

FOR THE DOUGH

1cup finely chopped Methi leaves (I used Kasoori methi)
½ cup coriander leaves finely chopped
2 cups wheat flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp fresh curd 
2 tbsp melted ghee
salt to taste

FOR STUFFING
200gms grated paneer
2 tsp finely chopped green chillies (I deseeded the chilies before chopping them)
1 ½ cup tightly packed coriander/methi finely chopped 
salt to taste I also used a bit of chilli powder and amchur.....


Method 
Add all the ingredients mentioned under the dough. Knead it stiff, divide into equal portions, cover and keep aside.




Roll out one portion of the dough into a thin round, pu one portion of the stuffing in the centre and bring the edges together to cover the stuffing completely. Roll out again into a circle.Repeat with the remaining portions and stuffing to make more stuffed puris.


Heat the oil in a Pan and deep fry the poori, till they turn golden brown in colour from both the sides. 

Your poori stuffed with paneer is ready
