Season with a little salt and then add 1/4 cup paneer.

Turn off the heat and mix in 1/4 cup processed cheese, let it cool.

Roll out the rested dough into a medium-thick sheet.

Use a round cutter to cut out circles from the rolled dough.

Place 1 tablespoon of stuffing in the center of each circle.
