Matar - Paneer Paratha

Parathas are my all time fav's for breakfast and i love to make them with all sorts of vegetables.

Usually ghee is used for paratha but i use oil these days oil and tastes wonderful but purist paratha lover will be mad at me for using oil but these days we all have to watch our health.Home made paneer is best for this recipe.I mixed everything into the flour to make a EXTRA SOFT paratha but the panner,matar,onion ,chilli and salt can be mixed together and used as stuffing to make stuffed paratha too.
