Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 2 cups Whole wheat flour (Atta)
  • 3 medium Potatoes, boiled and peeled
  • 2 pieces Green chilies, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Garam masala
  • 1 tsp Amchur (Dry mango powder)
  • 1/2 tsp Ajwain (Carom seeds)
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 tbsp Ghee or Oil
  • 3/4 cup Water

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt and water; knead into a soft, smooth dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, mash the boiled potatoes thoroughly ensuring there are no large lumps.

  3. 3

    Add green chilies, ginger, coriander, garam masala, amchur, ajwain, and salt to the mashed potatoes; mix well to create the filling.

  4. 4

    Divide the dough into equal-sized balls and roll one ball into a 4-inch circle.

  5. 5

    Place a portion of the potato filling in the center, bring the edges together to seal it, and flatten it gently.

  6. 6

    Dust with flour and roll the stuffed ball into a 7-8 inch diameter circle, being careful not to tear the dough.

  7. 7

    Heat a tawa or griddle and cook the paratha on medium heat until brown spots appear on both sides.

  8. 8

    Apply ghee or oil on both sides and press gently with a spatula until the paratha is golden brown and crisp.
