How to make paneer paratha
finish rolling all the balls and set aside separately.
Heat a tawa on a high flame, when it is hot transfer the paratha.
Very soon you will see bubbles on the paneer paratha.
Flip and then press down with a spatula to puff the paratha.
Cook on both the sides until you see golden to light brown spots on both the sides.
Drizzle ghee or oil and smear it all over.
Clean up the tawa with a paper towel to remove the burnt flour if any.
Then proceed to fry the next paneer paratha.
Stack up the parathas to keep them soft.
Serve paneer paratha with your favorite chutney.
