Paneer Stuffing:

• Fry the onions in a pan until translucent. Add the chopped capsicum and green chillis and fry for another 3-4 mins till the capsicum is cooked.
• Crumble the paneer and add it to the onions & capsicum. Add the salt and rest of the dry spices. Saute for another 5 mins and keep it aside.

Chillas:

• Drain the dal and grind it to a fine paste. To this paste, add 2 tbsp of besan and mix thoroughly so that no lumps are formed.
• To this paste, add the salt, dry spices, green chillis and fresh coriander leaves. Adjust the batter consistency so that it is similar to that of a dosa batter.
• Heat a little bit of oil in a non stick tawa and spread a ladle of the batter. Cook on a low flame until both sides are brown and crispy.
• Stuff the chilla with paneer and serve hot with amla chutney.
