Ingredients for Zingy Parcel:

For Dough:

1+1/2 cup Refined Flour

1 tbsp Instant Active Yeast

1 tbsp Sugar

1/3rd tsp Salt

1 tbsp Oil

For Stuffing:

1/2 cup Paneer, cubes

1 tbsp Butter

1 tsp Ginger, grated

1/2 tsp Salt

1/2 cup Green Capsicum

1/2 cup Yellow Capsicum

1 tsp Oregano

1 tsp pizza Sauce

Recipe:

Dough Preparation:

1. For preparing the dough, we need instant active yeast. Take instant active yeast in a bowl, pour 3-4 tbsp of lukewarm water, sugar, and mix well. Cover the yeast and rest for 10 minutes.
2. After 10 minutes, the yeast has puffed up. Now, we will knead the dough using the activated yeast. Take maida in a bowl, add salt in it and mix well.
3. Add the activated yeast to the Maida and mix well. Pour lukewarm water gradually and knead a soft dough. Add some oil to the dough and knead for 7-8 minutes or till it becomes soft. Add some more oil to the dough once it starts sticking to your hands.
4. Once done kneading, apply a little oil over the dough, cover it and keep aside for 1 hour at a warm place.

Stuffing Preparation:

1. Melt butter in a pan. When the butter melts completely, add grated ginger (or ginger paste) and sauté slightly.
2. Add chopped onion, chopped green capsicum, chopped yellow capsicum to the pan and mix well.
3. Now, add oregano (or mix-herbs), pizza sauce, tomato sauce, chopped paneer cubes to the pan, and mix well. The stuffing is ready. Allow it to cool.

Assemble Zingy Parcel:

1. Mix maida and semolina (Suji) on a plate. To make parcel crust crunchy, apply a little dry flour on your hand, punch and knead the dough once again.
2. Sprinkle dry maida over the board and roll the dough into a log. Further, divide the dough log into equal portions. Fold the cut dough portions into balls and keep them in a bowl.
3. Pick one ball of the dough, dust it with dry maida and flatten it between your palms. Now, roll it with a rolling pin and make it a bit thicker than chapati.
4. Once done, fold the dough sheet into a triangle and add 2 tsp of stuffing at the center. Apply some water at the corners of the triangle, bring the corners together, and seal them.
5. Likewise, prepare all the zingy parcels and put them on the baking tray. Preheat the oven at 180°C.
6. Brush with butter and milk.
7. Place the tray in the oven to bake. Set the oven temperature at 180° for 15-20 minutes.
8. Check the zingy parcels in the oven. They have turned slightly brown. Turn the tray to the other side and bake them for another 5 minutes.
9. Take the zingy parcels out and brush butter over them. Now, cover them with a little wet towel for a few minutes so that they can turn soft.
10. Zingy Parcels have turned soft. They are now ready to be served.

Enjoy and keep showering your love.
