- Cover & rest it for about 15/20 mins time. Knead it well again & make 8 round, medium shaped balls from the dough
- Mix both the butter & ghee in a separate bowl, grease the rolling boar/platform, coat it with the ghee-oil mixture, roll out each dough- about 7/8 inches in diameter or as thin as possible
- With a pairing knife cut it into thin strips, apply a bit of the ghee-oil mixture on it & lift it from the platform & roll it in a big roundel in order to form a bun-like shape (as how we do form a cinnamon roll)- repeat this, with all the 8 dough portions and refrigerate the same for an hour
- Then, take it out from the fridge and flatten it's surface by applying a bit of that ghee-oil mixture and by tapping it into a flatter round surface with the hands & fingers ultimately, shaping it like a Paratha & then fry them one one
- Grease a frying pan/tawa for frying the Parathas & fry it as we normally do while frying any normal parathas- we’ll see that when done the fine layers or what we call the lachas, can very well be seen as they seem to separate quite easily and looks absolutely fab
- Our foods are about to jump onto our platters to kickstart our hunger to the T
The creamy texture of spinach with paneer is a good combination. Palak paneer (pronounced [paːlək pəniːɾ]) is a vegetarian dish originating from the Indian subcontinent, consisting of paneer (a type of cottage cheese) in a thick paste made from puréed spinach. Palak paneer is one of the all-time most beloved Indian recipes. Palak means spinach and paneer is cheese, curd cheese if we wanna get technical.
