Broccoli is one of the world’s healthiest foods. This vegetable is a powerhouse of nutrients. In addition, it’s reputed to benefit digestion, the cardiovascular system, and the immune system and to have anti-inflammatory and even cancer-preventing properties. Paneer is a rich source of protein, and thus, it is ideal for vegetarians. It fulfills your daily calcium needs too. This helps your bones to grow faster and stronger. So this recipe is a good way of serving wholesome meals to your toddlers or kids.

How to Make Broccoli Paneer Paratha
Firstly, blanch or steam the broccoli florets. Then, chop the broccoli finely. You can also chop using the food processor. Take wheat flour, salt, and oil in a bowl and mix well. Add water and knead together to make a soft dough. Now apply oil over the dough and let it rest for at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, for the Broccoli paneer filling, mix all the ingredients listed for making the filling in a bowl. Divide the dough into equal portions—dust and roll the dough ball to make a 4-inch circle. Keep 2-3 tablespoon of filling in the circle’s center, and then bring the ends together. Dust and roll gently to make a 6-8 inch diameter paratha. Heat a griddle/tawa. Transfer the paratha to the hot griddle. Cook until brown spots appear on both sides. Apply oil or ghee and cook until nicely browned. Serve stuffed broccoli paneer paratha hot with raita and pickle.
