What’s the occasion you’d ask? Well, today is the 7th anniversary of my blog and if it was possible I wish to thank each one of you personally. So with your blessings and support I vow to keep on posting new recipes for you and satisfy your culinary taste.
Ingredients:
Needed for the dough
2 cups All purpose flour
1 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Oil
Water to knead the dough
For the Filling:
1 Onion, cut in thin slices
Capsicum slices thinly
1/4 cup Corn
1/2 tsp Garlic, finely chopped
1/4 tsp Black pepper powder
1 cup of grated Mozzarella cheese
1/2 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Red chili flakes
Salt to taste
Method:
Take a big bowl and mix flour, salt and mix well. Add oil and water simultaneously to knead the dough as you would do to make rotis. Cover and leave it for sometime to settle down.
To make the Filling:
In a large bowl mix everything together with a fork and grate cheese separately.
Assembling the paratha:
Now from the dough make two lime sized equal balls. Take a ball and flatten it on your palm and then by using a rolling pin roll out on a floured board to make a 5 inch disc.
Shift this to another plate and make another 5 inch disc with another set of ball.
Spread cheese Filling on one roti and then cover it with the other roti. Press down the edges to seal firmly. Dust some flour on it and roll out slightly.
Fry on a hot griddle. Cook for few minutes, flip in between, when brown spots appear drizzle with some oil. Do the same with the rest of the dough. Serve with your favorite dip !
Tips:
- You can use Pizza Sauce also, just spread a layer of pizza sauce and fill in the Cheese Mixture on top of it.
- For stuffing the options are endless, you can also add black olives and thinly sliced mushrooms.
- While filling the parathas with cheese mixture don't get tempted to stuff too much ;-)
- This process of making parathas is lot easier as the filling has less chance of spilling out while rolling.
