Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocado Paneer Filling

  • Peel and mash 2 ripe avocados into a smooth paste. Add 1 cup crumbled low-fat paneer, 2 tsp coriander powder, 2 tsp amchur powder, 1 tbsp red chili powder, 1 tsp roasted cumin powder, 2 tsp garam masala, and 1 tsp salt. Mix thoroughly to combine.

Make the Dough

  • In a large bowl, combine 1 cup whole wheat flour, 2 tbsp oil, and 1 cup water. Mix well to form a soft, pliable dough. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Lightly oil the dough, cover, and let rest for 15 minutes.

Assemble and Cook the Parathas

  • Divide the dough into 6-8 equal-sized balls. Dust a clean surface with all-purpose flour. Roll each ball into a 4-5 inch circle. Place a spoonful of the avocado paneer mixture in the center. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape, and gently seal the edges.

Cook the Parathas

  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or tawa over medium heat. Place the parathas on the hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Apply a little more oil as needed during cooking.

Serve

  • Serve the hot Avocado Paneer Parathas with yogurt, chutney, or your favorite side dishes.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Avocado Paneer Parathas

  • For best results, use ripe but firm avocados. Overripe avocados can make the filling too soft.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more whole wheat flour. If it's too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan while cooking the parathas. Cook them in batches to ensure even browning.
  • Experiment with different spices to customize the flavor to your liking. A pinch of asafoetida (hing) adds a unique aroma.
