Delicious Aloo Parathas with Spiced Potato Filling

1.In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and mix well.

2.Gradually add water and knead the mixture into a soft dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.

3.In another bowl, mix the boiled and mashed potatoes with cumin seeds, garam masala, red chili powder, coriander powder, chopped cilantro, and green chili (if using). Mix well to combine all the spices evenly.

4.Divide the dough into equal-sized balls (about the size of a golf ball). Do the same with the potato filling mixture.

5.Take one dough ball and flatten it slightly. Roll it out into a small circle on a floured surface.

6.Place a ball of the potato filling in the center of the rolled dough. Bring the edges of the dough together to encase the filling completely and pinch to seal.

7.Gently flatten the stuffed dough ball and roll it out into a larger circle, being careful not to let the filling escape.

8.Heat a tawa or skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the rolled paratha on the skillet.

9.Cook for about 1-2 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface. Flip the paratha and apply ghee or oil on the cooked side.

10.Cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown, applying more ghee or oil as needed. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

11.Serve the hot aloo parathas with yogurt, pickles, or your favorite chutney.
