Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a soft dough. Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.
- In another bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, cumin powder, coriander powder, chopped green chili, and fresh coriander leaves. Adjust salt to taste.
- Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Flatten it slightly.
- Take one ball, roll it out into a small circle, place a portion of the potato filling in the center, and fold the edges over the filling to seal it.
- Roll out the stuffed dough gently to form a flatbread, ensuring the filling doesn’t spill out.
- Heat a tawa or skillet over medium heat. Cook the paratha, applying ghee or oil on both sides until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process for the remaining dough and filling.
- Serve hot with yogurt or pickle.
Tips
- Ensure the potatoes are well-mashed to avoid lumps in the filling.
- You can add spices like garam masala for extra flavor if desired.
