- 1 tsp Ginger-Garlic Paste

- 1/2 tsp Chili Powder red
- 1 tsp Garam Masala

For the Roti

- 1/4 cup Water as needed to make dough
- 1/2 tsp Salt for the dough
- 1 tbsp Oil for the dough
- 1/4 cup Coriander dhania, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Paneer Filling
- Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and sauté until fragrant. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a minute. Add chopped onions and sauté until softened. Add chopped tomatoes and cook until softened. Stir in salt, red chili powder, and garam masala. Add crumbled paneer and mix well. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Make the Roti Dough
- In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water while mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add 1 tbsp oil to the dough and knead for another minute. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let rest for 15 minutes.
Assemble and Cook the Baisa Roti
- Roll out small portions of the dough into circles. Place a spoonful of the paneer filling in the center of each circle. Bring the edges of the circle together to form a half-moon or envelope shape, sealing the edges firmly.
Shallow Fry and Serve
- Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Carefully place the stuffed roti in the pan and shallow fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Cut into halves or squares. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Paneer Stuffed Baisa Roti
- For extra flavor, marinate the paneer in a mixture of yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
- To ensure the roti cooks evenly, use medium heat and don't overcrowd the pan.
- Feel free to experiment with different spices to customize the flavor of the filling. You can add green chilies for extra heat or some chopped cashews for added texture.
