Embrace the delightful flavors of traditional Indian cuisine with a healthy twist in this Paleo Sattu Paratha recipe. Made with a grain-free dough of almond flour, coconut flour, and psyllium husk, these parathas are perfectly soft yet sturdy enough to encase a savory sattu (roasted gram flour) filling. Infused with aromatic spices like cumin, carom seeds, and coriander, along with the zing of ginger and green chili, each bite bursts with earthy, satisfying goodness. This gluten-free and paleo-friendly recipe is quick to prepare, taking just under an hour from start to finish, making it perfect for a wholesome weekday meal. Serve these golden-brown parathas hot with a dollop of paleo-friendly yogurt or a zesty chutney for a nourishing and flavorful treat!
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk, and salt. Gradually add 0.75 cup of water and knead the mixture into a soft dough. Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes.
While the dough rests, prepare the sattu filling. In another bowl, mix together sattu, 0.25 cup of water, ginger paste, chopped green chili, carom seeds, cumin seeds, coriander powder, and Himalayan pink salt.
Divide the dough into four equal parts. Take one part and roll it into a ball.
Flatten the dough ball slightly and place about 2 tablespoons of the sattu filling in the center. Bring the edges of the dough together to seal the filling inside and roll it back into a ball shape.
Gently flatten and roll out the filled dough ball into a circle, approximately 6-7 inches in diameter, taking care not to tear the dough. You can dust the rolling surface with a bit of almond flour if needed.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a few drops of olive oil to the skillet.
Place the rolled paratha on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear. Add a little more olive oil as necessary.
Remove from heat and repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
Serve the Paleo Sattu Parathas hot with your choice of chutney or Paleo-friendly yogurt.
