Aloo paratha
December 31, 2014Ingredients:
Wheat flour :1cup
Salt to taste
Oil : 2 tsp
For stuffing
Potatoes : 2 medium
Green chillies : 2
Cumin powder : a pinch
Chat masala : a pinch
Coriander leaves : 1tsp chopped
Method:
In a bowl mix wheat flour, salt, oil and required amt of water and make a soft dough. Cover it and keep aside.
For filling: Boil the potatoes.Peel the skin and mash it. Add chopped green chillies, cumin powder, chat masala, a little salt and chopped coriander leaves and mix well and keep aside.
Now make the parathas with the dough.
Take one big lemon sized ball and roll out into a small circle. Keep one tbsp of the stuffing over it and close it like a dumpling, press down gently to flatten it.
Then roll out the flattened dough gently (don't press it too much, the stuffing will come out) with the stuffing into a circle.
Heat a tawa and place the rolled chappathi over it.
When it starts cooking small bubbles can see on the sides and drizzle some oil around it an flip it over to cook the other side. Apply little oil to this side also and cook until golden brown spots appear.

We can also do this in a different way: make a thin chappathi and spread the filling over it and cover it with another thin chappathi.
Then cook it the same way as before. By doing this way the filling won't come out when rolling.
