Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s the complete ingredient list to make your Happy Cow Cheese Paratha:
-
1 cup Happy Cow Mozzarella Cheese (chopped or shredded)
-
½ cup finely chopped onion
-
¼ cup finely chopped tomato
-
½ cup finely chopped capsicum
-
Shredded boiled chicken (optional, for protein)
-
1 teaspoon oregano
-
1 teaspoon chili flakes (adjust to taste)
-
¼ teaspoon black pepper powder
-
Salt to taste
-
Frozen pizza dough or paratha dough
Step-by-Step Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Filling
In a large mixing bowl:
-
Add Happy Cow Mozzarella Cheese (chopped or shredded).
-
Mix in the boiled shredded chicken (optional but adds richness).
-
Add chopped onion, tomato, and capsicum.
These fresh vegetables not only add crunch but also balance the creamy cheese with lightness.
Next, season the mixture with:
-
Oregano for herby aroma.
-
Chili flakes for a spicy kick.
-
Black pepper powder for depth.
-
A pinch of salt (but not too much since cheese already has salt).
Mix everything well until the ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 2: Roll the Dough
-
Take a ball of frozen pizza dough or homemade paratha dough.
-
Dust it lightly with flour.
-
Roll into a small circular disk (medium thickness).
Step 3: Stuff the Paratha
-
Place 2–3 tablespoons of cheese stuffing in the center of the dough disk.
-
Bring the edges together to seal the filling (like a pouch).
-
Dust again with flour and gently roll into a round paratha.
Tip: Keep it slightly thick to hold the gooey cheese inside.
Step 4: Cook the Paratha
-
Heat a tawa (griddle) on medium flame.
-
Place the stuffed paratha and cook for 1–2 minutes until golden spots appear.
-
Flip and cook the other side.
-
Press gently with a spatula for even cooking.
Sprinkle some extra Happy Cow Cheese on top while hot for that extra cheesy bite.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy
-
Serve the paratha hot with ketchup, chutney, or yogurt raita.
-
It’s best enjoyed fresh when the cheese is melty and gooey.
Pro Tips for the Perfect Cheese Paratha
-
Do not overfill the paratha or it may burst while rolling.
-
Use a non-stick pan or tawa to prevent sticking.
-
Always cook on medium heat—too high will burn the outside before cheese melts.
-
Add more herbs like basil, thyme, or parsley for a pizza-style flavor.
-
For kids, reduce chili flakes for a milder version.
Variations of Cheese Paratha
1. Cheesy Chicken Paratha
Add shredded chicken for a wholesome, protein-packed meal.
2. Veggie Cheese Paratha
Skip chicken and increase vegetables like mushrooms, corn, or spinach.
3. Pizza Paratha
Add pizza sauce inside the filling and sprinkle cheese on top for a fusion treat.
4. Sweet Cheese Paratha
Mix cheese with honey or Nutella for a dessert-style paratha.
