Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 tbsp ghee
  • 1.5 cups chopped onions
  • 2-3 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tsp ajwain
  • 2-3 tsp amchur
  • Salt to taste
  • 15-16 medium-sized potatoes boiled and grated
  • 5-6 green chillies
  • 1 cup chopped coriander leaves
  • Dough made with atta, maida, oil, salt, water
  • Ghee for frying

Method
 

To make the filling:
  1. Heat ghee in a wok over medium flame.
  2. Add chopped onions and cook until they're golden brown, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add ginger garlic paste and saute until the raw smell disappears.
  4. Mix in ajwain, amchur, and salt. Cook for a minute.
  5. Add boiled, grated potatoes and combine well. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Turn off the flame and stir in chopped green chillies and coriander leaves.
To make the paratha:
  1. Take a dough ball and roll it out into a small circle.
  2. Place a generous spoonful of the potato mixture at the centre.
  3. Seal the paratha by folding the dough over the filling.
  4. Sprinkle dry flour over the dough to prevent sticking.
  5. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a circle with even thickness.
To cook the paratha:
  1. Heat a heavy-bottomed tawa over high flame.
  2. Once hot, carefully place the paratha on the tawa.
  3. Cook the bottom side for a few minutes, until it gets a few light brown spots.
  4. Flip the paratha and cook the other side in the same manner.
  5. Generously pour ghee around the edges to give it a crispy, golden crust.
  6. Cook until both sides are golden brown and slightly crispy.
  7. Remove the paratha from the tawa and repeat the process with the remaining dough.
  8. Serve the parathas hot with a dollop of aam ka achaar (mango pickle) for a truly authentic experience!
