    WHY INDIAN cheese PARATHA

    cheese is a great protein-packed option for vegetarians. Kids spice paratha is suitable for toddlers' taste buds too. Parathas are a great delicious filling healthy tiffin option 

    Why paratha dough in a mixie?

    To make perfect dhabba style paratha we knead the dough well but mixie grinding helps for less kneading. 

    Tips for mixie dough

        • Make sure you use a powerful mixie or grinder
        • Preferably use warm water. Avoid boiling water
        • The size of the mixie jar should be 3 times compare the quantity of the dough

    TIPS TO NOTE FOR PARATHA DOUGH

    Always prepare a moist dough for paratha. Paratha dough should be a non-sticky, and soft dough, without any cracks. If you add less water dough might crack and it won't hold the stuffing. Pliable soft dough makes for the best paratha. Also, it is important to knead the dough well or grind the mixie dough. Adding ghee and oil to paratha dough gives a lot of difference in cheese-stuffed paratha texture so don't skip it.

    can I use shredded cheese instead of cheese slices?

    Yea you can also use shredded cheese. I prefer cheese slice as it gives perfect gooey cheese burst paratha.

    Should I sprinkle garlic salt?

    It is optional but it gives flavor to the cheese. Avoid adding more as it might turn paratha salty. 

    WHY SHOULD I ADD GHEE BEFORE PLACING THE STUFFING?

    I prefer adding a layer of ghee before adding the stuffing. It helps for puffy tasty paratha.

    OPTIMAL HEAT FOR COOKING PARATHA?

    When you are cooking paratha, maintaining the heat from low - the medium is the key. Add ghee and cook the paratha. Press it gently with a spatula often so that it is evenly cooked.

    SHOULD I USE GHEE WHILE MAKING cheese-STUFFED PARATHA?

    No, you can use any cooking oil but ghee gives a nice aroma and make the paratha super tasty.

    Side dish for an Indian cheese quesadilla 

    Cheese parathas with butter,  pickle varieties, and some spicy curry. You can also serve paratha with raita varieties, pickled onion tastes best.

    Notes

    1. If you are not grinding the dough in mixie, knead a smooth and soft dough
    2. It’s very important to let the dough rest
    3. You can also stuff shredded cheese and prepare paratha
    4. Use generous ghee while cooking paratha for the best flavor and texture
    5. Wait till the chappathi pan turns hot, then cook paratha. if the pan is not hot enough paratha might turn flaky
    6. I made the paratha kids friendly, but you can add the spice according to your preference
