Make a ball from dough. Roll it a little with the help of dry flour. Place the paneer filling in the center, cover it, make ball and flatten it with your hands. Then apply a little dry flour, roll it.

Heat a tawa. Put this stuff paratha on it. Cook well with the help of desi ghee. Apply desi ghee on both sides and cook on slow to get golden crisp paratha.

Tips:

I prefer whole wheat flour so, if you want all purpose flour (maida) you can use it.
