paneer

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Tofu is lower in calories and can mimic the texture of paneer.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is a healthier fat option.

yogurt

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt has more protein and can be used similarly.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: bread flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

1

In a bowl, add yogurt and baking powder and mix well.

2

Add 2 cups of wheat flour and 1 cup of all-purpose flour to the mixture.

3

Add 1 tablespoon of sugar, salt to taste, and 2-3 tablespoons of oil, mixing well with your hands.

4

Knead the mixture to form a soft dough and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

5

Grate the paneer and add salt, red chili powder, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, grated ginger, grated garlic, and green chilies, mixing well.

6

Take a portion of the dough and shape it slightly larger than a regular roti.

7

Add a small amount of the paneer stuffing to the center, ensuring not to overfill it to prevent bursting while rolling.

8

Seal the edges of the dough around the stuffing and shape it back into a ball.

9

Roll out the stuffed dough ball, making it slightly thicker than a regular roti, and sprinkle kalonji and cilantro leaves on top, pressing them in.

10

On the side without toppings, apply water generously to help it stick to the tawa.

11

Heat the tawa until hot, then reduce the flame to low.

12

Place the naan on the tawa with the water side down, pressing it to stick.

13

Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on low heat.

14

After 2-3 minutes, cook directly over the flame to puff it up.

15

Once cooked, brush with butter and serve hot.
