Potato And Onion Stuffed Flatbread (rajasthani Aloo Pyaaz Paratha)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 4 medium potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 1 green chili, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter) or oil
  • Water as needed

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, chopped onion, green chili, cumin seeds, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt.
  3. Divide the dough into equal-sized balls. Roll out each ball into a small circle and place a portion of the potato filling in the center. Bring the edges together and seal the filling inside the dough.
  4. Flatten the filled dough ball and roll it out into a paratha, dusting with flour as needed to prevent sticking.
  5. Heat a griddle or a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the griddle and cook until golden brown spots appear on both sides, brushing with ghee or oil.
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling to make more parathas.
  7. Serve the hot and delicious Potato and Onion Stuffed Flatbread with yogurt, pickle, or chutney.
