Ingredients:
100g paneer
50g grated cheese
1/4 tsp oil
1 tbsp celery, finely chopped
3 green chillies, finely chopped
Half a capsicum, finely chopped
Coriander leaves
Salt to taste
Samosa pattis (wanton or spring roll sheets)
Method:
- Heat very little oil in a pan.
- Add the finely chopped capsicum and finely chopped celery and saute for 5 seconds.
- Add the finely chopped green chillies and then take the pan off the burner.
- Add the grated paneer, grated cheese, coriander leaves and very little salt to the above ingredients and mix well.
- Using this filling, start making small balls (around 1/2 inch balls)
- Make the plain flour paste by mixing it with little water. Make sure that the paste is thick.
- Take the samosa pattis, fold them in the centre and cut them into two bunches of thin stripes. Again, fold them into half and cut them.
- Take one thin strip and apply the plain flour paste at the centre of the patti.
- Take another strip and stick it on the 1st strip, making a plus (+) sign.
- Take a ball of the filling and place it on the strip. Flatten it slightly.
- Start folding the strip. Begin from the lower strip. On the last strip, apply the plain flour paste and stick it.
- If the corners are slightly open, apply the flour paste on the corners.
- Start frying the pattis immediately in medium hot oil.
- Once they turn golden brown in colour, get the paneer parcels off the flame on an absorbent paper.
- The delicious paneer parcels are ready to be served.
