Paneer Paratha is a Indian flat bread with spiced indian cottage cheese stuffing. I had some home made paneer and prepared this paratha for evening snacks. This paratha is served with curd. Paneer is always my favourite. That too I love the recipes made with home made paneer. Please check below for step by step instructions and pictures for preparing Indian Paneer Paratha.
