Stuffed Achari Paneer Paratha is the latest addition to my list of stuffed parathas that I pack for Konda. I mostly make Aloo Paratha for lunch at least once a week. However, to give a change I decided to make Paneer, and to make it spicy I used Achar Masala mixed with paneer. Stuffed Parathas are wonderful to carry and mess less.
My boys used to carry this last year, this year they have defined taste buds and refuse all of this variety. So I end up experimenting with Konda's Lunch box.
Achari Paneer Paratha is for the second day of BM#69 on Flatbreads. Stuffed Paneer Parathas are mostly stuffed with crumbled paneer and onions as well. In today's version, I simply added cut mango masala to the crumbled paneer and stuffed it. You can get a lot of Ideas for stuffing Paratha and works out best for lunches.

I made the Achari Paratha when I did Bengali for the Indian Odyssey mega BM but adding paneer to it will be more filling and delicious for sure!
