Ingredients
- Warm Water – 1 cup
- Rapid Rise Yeast – 1½ tsp (see note below if using Dry Active Yeast)
- Sugar – 1 tsp
- Kosher Salt – 1½ tsp
- Olive Oil – ⅓ cup
- All-Purpose Flour (Maida) – 3 cups (plus little extra for dusting)
- Paneer – 7 oz (200 g or 1½ cups), crumbled
- Turmeric Powder – ¼ tsp
- Dry Mango Powder – 1 tsp
- Red Chili Powder – ½ tsp or to taste
- Garam Masala – 1 tsp
- Salt – to taste
- Pickled Jalapenos – ½ cup, chopped finely (click here for recipe) Nacho Jalapenos can also be substituted.
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine Warm Water, Yeast, Sugar, Salt and Olive Oil. Mix well.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine above mixture (a little at a time) with All-Purpose Flour and knead into a soft dough. Once dough comes together, knead for 4 to 5 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic. Additional flour can be used for dusting to prevent dough from sticking to hands.
- Combine crumbled Paneer, Turmeric Powder, Dry Mango Powder, Red Chili Powder, Garam Masala, Salt and Pickled Jalapenos. Mix gently so that paneer doesn’t get mashed.
- On a rolling surface, roll out dough into a rectangular shape (approx 9 inch by 13 inch).
- Spread Paneer mixture evenly over the dough all the way to the edges and gently press in.
- From the side closest to you, start rolling the dough tightly into a log.
- Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9″x13″ baking pan and place dough log in the center.
- Loosely cover with a damp kitchen towel and place pan in a warm place for 1 hour to allow dough to rise.
- Take a serrated knife and make shallow diagonal slits into the top of the dough.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (232C) and then reduce temperature to 425 degrees F (218C).
- Place pan in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Every oven is different so please keep an eye on it towards the end of the cooking period.
- Remove bread from oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Remove bread from pan and place on a cooling rack for 30 minutes before cutting or serving.
- Cool completely before storing.
Notes
If using Dry Active Yeast, use same amount. Proof the yeast by adding it with sugar to warm water and allowing it to rest for 5-10 minutes, until foamy. Knead dough and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour. Roll out the dough, spread the filling, roll it into a log and the allow it to rise again for 1 additional hour. All other steps are the same.
