Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Sattu (roasted gram flour)
- 1 small, finely chopped Onion
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Coriander leaves
- 1 inch, grated Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Dry mango powder (amchur)
- 2 teaspoons Oil
- as needed Water
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. Cover and set aside for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix sattu, chopped onion, green chili, coriander leaves, grated ginger, cumin seeds, carom seeds, salt, and dry mango powder. Add a teaspoon of oil and mix well to form a cohesive filling. This mixture should be moist but not wet.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll into balls. Flatten each ball slightly to form a small disc.
Take one disc and place a generous tablespoon of the sattu filling in the center. Carefully bring the edges together and seal the filling inside, pinching off any excess dough.
Gently flatten and roll out the stuffed dough ball into a paratha, about 6 inches in diameter, using minimal dry flour to prevent sticking.
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the hot skillet.
Cook the paratha until bubbles form on the surface, then flip over and cook the other side until golden brown. Use a few drops of oil to lightly grease the surface if necessary.
Repeat the process for the remaining dough and filling.
Serve hot with yogurt or any low-fat pickle for a flavorful, guilt-free meal.
