Paneer Carrot Masala Bread with 'Cream of Broccoli' Soup


I was just complaining to "M' the other day...that sometimes....there are days..I feel..I am not motivated enough to cook something different and fun.For the next hour or so...I kept thinking...What should I cook for dinner?/? What did I want to make for a long time??? And then....suddenly remembered this Spicy Bread my friend 'G' had baked (Recipe:www.showmethecurry.com) and put yummy pics on FB.
 I wanted to bake my own bread and this was the perfect evening when I was running out of any other ideas!

I pretty much followed the recipe of 'showmethecurry'...(http://showmethecurry.com/breads/paneer-masala-bread.html) except for ---
few changes in the filling, using 1/2 whole wheat flour and the times of letting the dough rise and baking and sprinkling sesame seeds on the bread before baking


Filling:
Paneer-Carrot masala
1 cup paneer chopped into small pieces
1/2 onion finely cut
1 tomato finely chopped
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1tsp Ginger garlic paste
1tsp red chili powder
1/2tsp cumin seeds
1/2tsp garam masala
1tsp oil
salt
1tbsp chopped cilantro

Heat the oil. Add cumin seeds and onion. Fry till translucent.Add the ginger garlic paste and tomatoes and fry till water evaporates.Add the carrots and fry for few minutes.Add the rest of the spices and paneer and mix.Keep aside for filling in the bread dough.

Baking:
1) Follow the instructions for making dough from the above website.Substitute the all purpose flour with 1/2 whole wheat flour.
2) I let the dough sit for 50 mins and  let it rise again for 45 mins after rolling out and filling.

Serve the bread Hot out of the oven with your favorite dipping sauce or soup!
