Aloo Paratha

How to Prepare

1. Prepare the dough by mixing 5 cups of whole wheat flour with water and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Knead until soft and smooth. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
2. Boil 10 medium potatoes until soft, then peel and mash them in a bowl.
3. Add 2 finely chopped green chilies
4. 1 tsp cumin seeds
5. 1 tsp garam masala
6. 1 tsp red chili powder
7. 2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves, and salt to taste to the mashed potatoes. Mix well.
8. Divide the dough into 20 equal portions and roll each portion into a small ball.
9. Take one dough ball, flatten it, and place 2-3 tbsp of the potato mixture in the center. Fold the edges over the filling and seal it.
10. Roll out the stuffed dough ball gently into a flat circle, about 6-7 inches in diameter, using a rolling pin and some dry flour to prevent sticking.
11. Heat a tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the tawa and cook for 1-2 minutes until small bubbles appear.
12. Flip the paratha, apply 1 tsp of ghee or oil on the cooked side, and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown spots appear.
13. Flip again, apply ghee on the other side, and cook for 30 seconds. Remove from tawa.
14. Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls. Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or butter.
