Paneer Veggie Roti
Wanted to give chappathi / Roti to my son with good protein and vegetables. Same way, we wanted to have spicy Capsicum Paneer Fry ( which he cannot have at his age), I decided to make his chappathi loaded with paneer and veggies instead. So I transformed the normal chappathi / Roti by mixing few cubes of fresh paneer, grated carrots, peas, little omum powder, jeera powder. We were so satisfied that he also had some good healthy meal along with us. Because of fresh paneer, the rotis came out softly and it was colourful with different veggies too.
Ingredients
Chappathi / Roti Dough - Tennis Ball Size
Grated Carrots - 1/4 cup
Frozen Peas ( cooked )- 1 Handful
Fresh Paneer Cubes - 2 Cubes medium size
Jeera Powder - 1 pinch
Omum / Ajwain powder - 1 pinch
Ghee - For frying the chappathi / Roti
Method
- Take the chappathi dough which you prepare for making regular chappathis / Rotis.
- To that, add grated carrots, cooked peas, fresh paneer cubes, jeera powder, Omum powder and crush everything and mix it thoroughly with the dough.
- Make a small chappathi / Roti into a round shape and fry it on medium flame both sides with little ghee.
- Serve it with fresh curd. Healthy evening snack or morning breakfast for the kids who refuse to eat veggies separately sometime.
Tips
Avoid mashed potatos in this dough as it does not go well with paneer and makes it too heavy.
