Simple Cheese Paratha Recipe, in 15 minutes
Parathas are delicious Indian flatbreads made with whole wheat flour and stuffed with fillings of choice. Paratha originates in Peshawar, where it is considered a healthy power-packed breakfast. Today, you can find paratha in every corner of India.
In India, you can find two types of parathas. Parathas are either fried or toasted. I remember the summer days staying in India when I used to travel with a couple of my friends to Delhi to visit the famous paranthe wali galli or locally known as “khau galli” in Chandni Chowk to try out different fried parathas on the streets. Delhi is typically known for its deep-fry paratha.
I haven’t seen any other place in India with that many varieties of parathas compared to Delhi. You can get all sorts of stuffings in Delhi, from traditional spicy fillings like potato, paneer, peas, onion, and cauliflower to sweet fillings like mewa, rabri, banana, etc. I personally like Babu Ram Parantha in Delhi. Today, countless vendors serve better parathas than Babu Ram or Kannaiylal Durga in Chandni Chowk, Delhi.
When you move out of Delhi, you will find street vendors toasting paratha in ghee instead of frying them. These are the best and most healthy parathas, as they are less oily and maintain the same crispiness as fried parathas in Delhi.
The best part about the Parathas is that it is one of the most versatile flatbreads, as you can stuff it with any fillings of choice, and voila, you have a new variation of Paratha ready! So, today I share the Cheese Paratha recipe with you guys.
Cheese Paratha is a delicious Indian flatbread stuffed with cheese, onions, green chilies, spices, and fresh coriander. I have tried many variations of cheese paratha stuffed with either onion, paneer, potato, cauliflower, mungbean, or peas, but the perfect taste comes from the masalas.
After trying different variations, I have noticed that when you add sandwich masala to the filling, the cheese paratha tastes even better. So, in my version, I have added sandwich masala and black pepper to the mix. Chat masala also works fine for this cheese paratha if you want to replace it with a sandwich masala.
These cheese parathas are easy and quick to make in just 15 minutes. Mix cheese, onions, and spices and keep aside. Knead the dough and make the parathas and serve them immediately. These cheese parathas taste delicious when served hot.
Enjoy this cheese onion paratha with yogurt, pickle, or any sabzi at breakfast, office, or home for lunch, Kids’ tiffin box, or at a Sunday last brunch.

Difference between roti and paratha?
