Ingredients

  • For dough

  • 2 cup Whole wheat flour

  • Salt to taste or 1 tsp

  • 1 tsp oil

  • For Stuffing

  • 4 medium size potato boiled and mashed

  • 1 tsp chaat masala powder

  • 1 tsp Red chilly powder or to taste

  • 1 tsp Fennel seed crushed

  • 2 tbsp Coriander leaves

  • 2 tsp salt or to taste

  • 2 green chilly – finely chopped or to taste

  • 1/2 cup oil

Directions

  • Take a big round dish and add the flour, for 2 cups and salt, knead well, then add slowly water and knead well until it becomes a dough with no cracks and take oil on hands and kneed well. then let the dough rest for about 30 minutes.
  • Stuffing
  • Take the potatoes, and mix in the masala, red chili powder, fennel seed, chaat masala, green chili, coriander leaves and salt. Mix everything and keep aside.
  • Paratha
  • Take the dough and divide it into equal sized pieces that are a little bigger than a golf ball.
    Take a flat pan and put on the gas at slow heat. After that, take one piece of dough with dust and press it between your hands or use a rolling pin to make a flat disc with a diameter of 4 inches. Spread ¼ tsp of oil on it and then put about 2 or 3 tbsp of the stuffing in the middle of the piece.
    Then, pick up the sides of the piece of dough and pull them together at the top.
    The stuffing should basically be “wrapped” inside the dough. Then, roll out the dough with dust to the size of a medium tortilla, or with a diameter of around 6-7 inches.
  • Now, take the flat pan and start it at medium heat. A paratha is cooked in a similar way to a tortilla. Spread ½ tsp of oil on the pan, and then put the paratha in the pan.
    Cook the paratha so that it is golden brown on both sides. Your paratha is ready!
  • Serve hot with yogurt (dhai) and pickle (achaar). and butter.
