If you ever lived in North India you would probably know the value of Parathas in daily lives. In one or the other form it is an integral part of daily breakfast and even Lunch and Dinner. There is a huge variety of parathas in the menu. Aloo paratha, mooli ka paratha, onion paratha, lachha paratha, pizza paratha, egg paratha, cheese paratha to name a few. If you have ever been to North Indian marriages, tawa sabji and tawa parathas is among one of the main course meals served. Whenever I attend any North Indian marriage I always hog on to these stuffed parathas.
There are many ways of making paneer parathas. Today I am making these gorgeous parathas in little different way. One of my bhabhis nailed the recipe and made these paneer parathas exactly like shaadi wala paratha. It’s a jackpot for me . Now I also make these parathas whenever I crave for it. To make these paneer parathas first I added some oil and rava ( semoline or suji) in regular wheat flour ( atta) that makes paratha crisp from outside and melt in mouth from inside. Also I have used little extra oil in cooking them, after all they are shaadi wale tawa parathe.
