Ingredients

For the dough:

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 2 teaspoon oil
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

For the filling:

  • 2 medium sized potatoes boiled
  • 1 medium sized onion finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoon Coriander Leaves finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon red chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 2 teaspoon oil/ghee for frying each paratha
  • To taste Salt

Instructions

Let us keep the dough ready to make aloo paratha:

  • Mix wheat flour to make firm dough. Add salt and oil to wheat flour and mix. Mould it into a soft yet firm dough by adding water little at a time.
  • Cover the dough with muslin cloth for 30 minutes. You can even make this dough in a food processor and then let it rest for some time.

Let us keep the stuffing ready:

  • Peel and finely chop the boiled potatoes.
  • Using a masher, mash the chopped boiled potatoes.
  • Take a mixing bowl and add mashed potatoes, finely chopped onion, finely chopped coriander leaves, red chilli powder, cumin powder, garam masala and salt.
  • Mix well and keep aside

Let us make the parathas:

  • Make small balls from the dough of equal size. The size should be a little bigger than the table tennis ball.
  • Roll the dough ball into a little bit of dry wheat flour and roll it into small thick flat round shape.
  • Place 2 tablespoon of the stuffing on it and close from all sides.
  • Dust it in dry whole wheat flour and roll it into bigger round shapes, just like a chapatti. If you see any air bubbles while rolling, simply pat it gently with your fingertips.
  • Then apply 1 teaspoon ghee on the frying pan and place the paratha on it. After 5 minutes, apply 1 teaspoon ghee on the upper side and turn. Fry for 5 minutes. The aloo paratha is ready. Serve it with curds or any dish.
