shahi paratha recipe | shahi paneer paratha | dry fruit stuffed paratha with detailed photo and video recipe. perhaps one of the premium and rich stuffed paratha recipes made with wheat flour & a combination of dry fruits. it is basically an improvised version of the aloo paratha with extra toppings of sev, paneer and dry fruits. it is an ideal packed and loaded meal that can be easily served to lunch and dinner without any extra side dish requirements.
i have always been a huge fan of paratha. it is not just because of its taste, but also for the fact that it does not require any additional side dish for it. for instance, if we prepare this for lunch and dinner, there is no need for any curry, chutney or any dry sabji. if you have a choice of spicy pickle or even sour yoghurt should do it as a side dish for this recipe. well, this theory holds good for almost all paratha, but this shahi paratha is even better. it is loaded with vegetables, paneer and different types of dry fruits. therefore, it makes a filling and rich paratha out of all.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the shahi paneer paratha recipe. firstly, the recipe is made with just wheat flour and it is more than sufficient for this recipe. but it can also be prepared with a combination of wheat flour and plain flour with a 1:1 ratio. using plain flour gives a good texture and colour to the paratha. secondly, due to the use of dry fruits, the stuffing can turn into a sweet mixture. therefore, i would recommend preparing the stuffing spicy compared to the traditional paratha stuffing. lastly, the street style shahi paratha is prepared with cheese stuffing and event topped with cheese grating. i have not added but if you prefer, you can add mozzarella or cheddar cheese.
