• Opt for a healthy flour: Instead of wheat, opt for a healthy keto-friendly flour like almond or flaxseed flour. Mix it with a pinch of salt and water for the dough.

• Sauté the paneer filling: Lightly cook some crumbled or grated paneer in a pan with everyday spices for flavour.

• Add green chillies: For a little extra punch, add some chopped green chillies to the paneer mix.

• Roll the mixture: Stuff the paneer mix into the dough and roll it into a round shape like your parathas.

• Cook with ghee: Heat a pan and cook the parathas with a little ghee until they are crisp on both sides.

• Serve with curd: Enjoy the parathas with curd to derive maximum nutritional benefits.

Janhvi Kapoor’s paneer paratha recipe has several nutritional benefits, starting with the keto-friendly flours like almond or flaxseed flour, which are gluten-free and low in carbs. They are also rich in healthy fats, fibre, and essential nutrients, making them a healthy alternative.

The paneer stuffing makes it more nutrient-dense, as it’s a protein-rich food with the added benefits of calcium and phosphorus. Serving it with curd increases its health benefits, since curd is a probiotic good for gut health. Together, these paneer parathas make for a guilt-free breakfast as they combine protein, healthy fats, fibre, and probiotics.
