Our dinner regular is Roti and Paratha. Now when its going to be almost the same every single day, I like to make it interesting by adding different elements to it by way of stuffing.  Also I find it easier to make parathas which enables me to slack off on a side dish since mostly parathas by themselves are heavy and don't need much by way of a side dish. Simple raita and pickle is mostly enough to suffice a full blown meal. Even if you are planning for a side dish, make sure its something very light and gravy based. You need something to balance the heavy parathas with something light.

I chanced upon this paratha during a visit to an Indian restaurant which we had never been to earlier. We loved their selection and we ordered this paratha. It read Hara bhara paratha with a cauliflower, spinach  and potato filling. It tasted yummy especially since there was some Ghee involved in the cooking. Nothing beats the taste of ghee! Ghee lovers will scoff at butter for sure - but well Ghee is more calorie rich than butter. Sigh! :(  Anyways, I used their base idea to recreate the same at home, my way. If you know me, then you will understand my need to incorporate paneer somehow ;)! I am to Paneer what Paula Deen is to Butter! ;) So I added some Paneer to the mix of stuffing :) But this is a versatile dish. You can add whatever stuffing strikes your fancy. The spices are also easily customizable. I used what I had on hand on that day but get wild with it :)
