Aloo paratha made with Govindam Deshi Ghee

You need

  • 2 cups whole wheat atta
  • Salt
  • 1 tsp Govindam Deshi Ghee for the dough
  • Water to knead
  • 3 potatoes, boiled, peeled and mashed
  • 1 green chilli, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 2 tbsp chopped coriander
  • 1/2 tsp amchur
  • 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
  • Govindam Deshi Ghee for cooking

Method

  1. Knead the atta with salt, 1 tsp ghee and enough water into a soft dough. Cover and rest for 20 minutes.
  2. Mix the potatoes with the green chilli, ginger, coriander, amchur, chilli powder and salt.
  3. Divide the dough and filling into 6 portions each. Roll a dough ball into a small disc, put the filling in the middle, bring the edges up and seal.
  4. Dust with flour and roll it gently into a 7 inch paratha.
  5. Cook on a hot tawa until small bubbles appear, then flip. Brush ghee on both sides and press with a spatula until golden spots appear.
  6. Serve hot with curd, pickle or a little white butter.

Tip. Let the filling cool completely before stuffing. Warm, wet potato tears the dough.
