Chicken Keema Paratha is a quick meal, can also be served as food, lunch box or side starter. You could make keema in advance Or follow this link for the recipe. Once you make mince you could store into fridge for upto 2 days and freezer upto a week. Thaw for an hour and stuff them in the parathas.

Keema is a very popular dish across India and quite popular in Mumbai. Even parathas are made of different kinds like aloo paratha, ajwain paratha, egg paratha, mooli paratha, methi paratha, cheese paratha etc. I also drool over parathas and club them with yogurt, salad Or veggies. Quite filling yet so tasty

If you don’t like chicken you could use mince meat. Veg lovers can replace meat with cottage cheese, tofu etc. Paneer paratha will be soon on my list may be with a twist. All the while I can only think about food and what to make ?

Anyways I am falling short of words so will proceed to the step by step details.
