  1. Sift refined flour with baking powder, soda bicarbonate and salt into a deep bowl. Add sugar, egg, milk, yogurt and a little water and knead into a medium soft dough. Brush with oil, cover with a damp piece of muslin and set aside for one hour For the stuffing, heat oil in a pan.
  2. Add cumin seeds and when they begin to change colour, add onions and green chillies and sauté over medium heat for one minute. Add coriander and mint chutney and continue to sauté for another minute. Add grated paneer and salt, toss well and transfer to a plate to cool.
  3. Divide into eight equal portions. Knead the dough again and divide it into eight equal portions. Shape into round balls and dust with flour. Flatten each ball and roll out into four-inch rounds. Place one portion of the stuffing in the centre, gather the edges together and shape into a ball again.
