Paneer Stuffed Crescent Rolls

Hi

I am sure you are wondering as to why I am on a paneer cooking spree:-)We love Paneer...who doesn't?. Paneer used in all possible ways in this blog:-) is the result of this mad paneer love!!!And how could I forget Paneer in Bake-a-thon??? (I Know Champa will be sure that I am going Crazy)For today's experiment I have tried to use paneer as a stuffing in these crescent rolls. I have replaced the whole wheat flour with all purpose flour and stuffed with this yummy paneer stuffing.
INGREDIENTS

FOR THE DOUGH
All purpose flour 2 1/2 cups

Salt 3/4 tsp

Olive oil 2 tbsp

Milk(warm) 1/2 cup

Sugar 1 tbsp

Active dry yeast 2 1/4 tsp

Chilli flakes 2tsp

Thyme 1tsp

Oregano 1tsp

Water 1/4 cup

STUFFING

Paneer 1 cup

Kasuri methi 2 tbsp

Coriander 1 tbsp

Mint 1 tbsp

Cumin seeds 2 tsp

Salt to taste

PREPARATION

Add the yeast to the luke warm water to which sugar is added.Set it aside for it to froth.

Mix the flour and salt in a bowl. Add the yeast mixture to this and knead. Add the warm milk and knead it into a soft dough. To this mixed dough add the seasonings and knead well(10 minutes) so that it becomes pliable.Keep it covered in a warm place for it to double. Approximately 1 hr

To form the stuffing mix all ingredients under stuffing and keep aside.

When the dough has doubled, punch it down a little,make it into two parts and roll each into a circle which is not very thin. Cut into wedges. Keep stuffing inside each and roll into rolls.The detailed procedure is shown here

Keep these rolls on a greased tray and cover it loosely and let it rise again for 45 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200C

Brush these crescents with butter and bake them for 18-20 minutes or till starts to brown

Cool them on the wire rack and serve with tomato sauce

These Crescent rolls are crisp from outside and soft with inside
