Paneer bhurji paratha is a light, healthy and filling dish served in breakfast or brunch. It is basically an Indian flatbread prepared mainly with whole wheat flour and scrambled cottage cheese.

Paneer is a good source of protein. The low fat paneer is nothing but a cottage cheese made with low-fat milk. Low fat paneer provides a healthier alternative to the high-fat version. Therefore it is mostly preferred by dieters.

To make this paneer bhurji paratha I have used my homemade paneer. Homemade paneer is always the best both in taste and texture. This dish is a wholesome meal in itself. It can be eaten without any accompaniment. So it is a good option for the lunchbox or long road trip. It can also be served with green chutney or yogurt.

So let’s see how to make this paneer bhurji paratha recipe.
