  • Garam masala 1/2 teaspoon

Take note
Be careful when handling hot ingredients and equipment. Ensure that the potato filling is completely cool before stuffing the paratha to avoid any accidents or burning.

1

Prepare the dough

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of whole wheat flour, 1 tablespoon of oil, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water while kneading until you have a soft and non-sticky dough. Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

2

Prepare the potato filling

In the meantime, peel and boil 3 medium-sized potatoes until they are tender. Mash the potatoes thoroughly and add 1 finely chopped onion, 2 finely chopped green chilies, 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin powder, 1/2 teaspoon of coriander powder, a pinch of turmeric powder, and salt to taste. Mix everything well.

3

Stuff and roll the parathas

Divide the dough into equal-sized balls. Take one dough ball and roll it into a small circle. Place a spoonful of the potato filling in the center and gather the edges to seal it. Gently flatten the dough ball and roll it out into a circle, dusting with flour to prevent sticking.

4

Cook the parathas

Heat a non-stick tawa or a griddle over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the tawa and cook for about 1-2 minutes until you see bubbles forming. Flip it over and brush some oil or ghee on top. Cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy.

5

Serve and enjoy

Repeat the process for the remaining dough balls. Serve the hot Aloo Parathas with a dollop of butter, yogurt, pickle, or any chutney of your choice. Enjoy the flavorful and comforting taste!
