ALOO PARATHA


Paratha stuffed with Aloo and any side dish or curd will be really excellent.
INGREDIENTS:

Whole wheat atta - 2 cups
Salt
Ghee
For stuffing:

Potatoes - 5
Green chillies - 2

Coriander leaves chopped - handful

Omam (ajwain) - 1/2 tsp.
Salt
METHOD:
Knead atta with salt to
a medium soft dough.

The dough should be firm so that it will be easy while rolling it.Knead well for
5 more minutes. Cover it and keep it aside.
Boil potatoes, peel the
skin and mash it well without
any lumps. There should not be
any water in the potato.
Chop finely green
chillies and coriander leaves
and add it to the potatoes alongwith ajwain and salt. Mix well. Now your stuffing is ready.
Take small balls from the dough,
shape it to a cup and fill
it with potato stuffing.
Close from all the sides.
Dust with flour and roll it out gently.

(You can also roll to a small puri and fill it with the stuffing and close it from the sides).


Heat a tawa, place the paratha, allow to cook on one side and when the colour changes to light brown turn it to the other side.
Put some ghee on each side and flip it till done.


Serve hot with any side dish of your
choice or curd with chaat masala
or plain curd or tomato sauce.
