Cottage cheese flatbread wrap is a simple, high-protein meal made by combining paneer with whole wheat flour to form a soft, pliable dough. Pan-cooked until lightly golden, these flatbreads work well as wraps for savoury fillings, making them ideal for quick breakfasts, lunches or light dinners.

Directions
Description - Step 1
Prepare The Cottage Cheese
Place the cottage cheese in a bowl and mash it thoroughly using a fork. If the paneer is grainy, it can be briefly blended for a smoother texture. Properly mashed cottage cheese helps the dough bind evenly and results in softer flatbreads.
Description - Step 2
Mix The Dough
Add whole wheat flour, salt, black pepper and any optional seasonings to the mashed cottage cheese. Drizzle in oil and begin mixing. Add water gradually, a little at a time, until a soft, non-sticky dough forms. The dough should be pliable but not loose.
Description - Step 3
Rest The Dough
Cover the dough and let it rest at room temperature. Resting allows the flour to hydrate fully and makes rolling easier. This step also helps the flatbreads stay soft after cooking.
Description - Step 4
Divide And Roll
Divide the dough into equal-sized portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball. Dust lightly with flour and roll out into thin circles, similar to rotis. Aim for even thickness to ensure uniform cooking.
Description - Step 5
Cook The Flatbreads
Heat a heavy-bottomed pan or tawa over medium heat. Place one rolled flatbread onto the hot pan. Cook until bubbles appear, then flip and cook the other side. Light brown spots should form. Drizzle a few drops of oil or butter if desired. Repeat with the remaining flatbreads.
Description - Step 6
Keep Flatbreads Soft
Transfer cooked flatbreads to a clean cloth and keep covered. Trapping steam prevents them from drying out and keeps them flexible enough for wrapping.
Description - Step 7
Assemble The Wrap
Place a flatbread on a clean surface. Spread yoghurt, chutney or a simple sauce of choice. Add cooked vegetables, paneer or protein fillings, followed by fresh salad. Roll tightly into a wrap.
Description - Step 8
Serve Immediately
Serve the cottage cheese flatbread wraps warm. The flatbread should be soft, mildly flavoured and sturdy enough to hold fillings without tearing.
