Ingredients:

• Whole wheat flour/atta- 1 cup + extra for dusting
• Salt- ¼ tsp.
• Oil or ghee- 1 tsp.
• Water- for kneading the dough
• For the stuffing:
• Cheese- ½ cup (grated)
• Onions- ¼ cup (finely chopped)
• Green chilli- 1-2 (finely chopped)
• Black pepper- ¼ to ½ tsp.
• Salt- as per taste
• Oil or ghee- for cooking the paratha

Procedure:

1.  In a bowl, take the whole wheat flour, salt and oil. rub the ingredients together really well. Start adding water slowly and knead it to form a soft dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and keep it aside to rest for 25-30 minutes.
2.  In another bowl, add the cheese, green chilli, onion, black pepper and salt. Mix the ingredients really well.
3.  Take two small balls of the dough and roll them between your palms. Dust them with some dry flour and roll each of the balls into 4-5 inch rounds. Try to make the rounds of the same size.
4.  Now place a good amount of stuffing in the centre of one of the rounds. Place the other round over the top of the first round and seal the edges with your fingers.
5.  If needed, dust with some extra flour and roll the paratha with a rolling pin to a satisfactory size.
6.  Heat the tawa and place the stuffed paratha on it. Wait for a few seconds and flip the paratha. Apply some oil/ghee on the top side of the paratha and after a few seconds flip it. Let the oiled  side cook for a minute. Meanwhile, apply some ghee/oil on the top side of the paratha. Flip again and cook this side similarly.
7.  You might have to flip the paratha quite a few times to get it cooked evenly. You can also press the edges of the paratha with a spatula to get them nice and crisp. Once the paratha looks  cooked, looks crispy and you could see the browning marks on it, take the paratha off the flame.
8.  Prepare all the parathas like this.
9.  Serve your cheese paratha hot with curd, ketchup or tea.
