Paneer Stuffed Parwal

My husband is crazy about stuffed vegetables. My mom is the best cook in the world to prepare a stuffed veg item. She can almost stuff all vegetables. Be it Parwal( Pointed Gourd), Ridge Gourd, Bitter Gourd, Okra, Egg Plant, Raw Banana. So this dish is dedicated to my lovely mom.

Ingredients:
Parwal ( Pointed Gourd)

For Stuffing
250 gm Paneer
2 Potatoes
2 Onions
2 Green Chillies
1/2 tsp Jeera (Cumin) Powder
1/2 tsp Dhania ( Coriander ) Powder
Pinch of Aamchoor (Dry Mango) Powder
Salt
Turmeric
Oil


Preparation for Stuffing

Boil the potatoes and then peel it. Smash it .
Put little oil in pan. Cut onions, green chillies and fry  them in the oil.
Put little turmeric powder.
Add Jeera powder, dhania powder and aamchor powder.
Fry them add little salt.
Smash paneer like you do for bhurji ,mix it with smashed potatoes.
Put them in the masala . Fry it nicely.

Preparation of parwal

Wash all the parwal and dry them.
Cut it lengthwise , don't cut it completely. Just cut one side so that masala can be stuffed.
Put them in a pan with boiling water.Cook  them for 10 min till they are cooked but don't over cook them. Cool them.
Stuff the fried masala into them.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the stuffed parwal.
Turn both the side and fry them.
Now stuffed parwal is ready.
Note: This can be done with okra also.

There is a another recipe i had tried before I became a vegetarian. You can replace the paneer with fish. Just fry the fish, remove the bones and smash the flesh with potatoes and stuff them into parwal.
