Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Roasted gram flour (sattu)
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 pieces Green chilies, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ajwain (carom seeds)
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- as needed Water
- 3 tablespoons Vegan oil (for making dough and cooking)
Instructions
To prepare the dough, take the whole wheat flour in a large mixing bowl, add 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of vegan oil, and mix well. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth, pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
In another bowl, prepare the stuffing by mixing roasted gram flour (sattu), chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, grated ginger, cumin seeds, ajwain, turmeric powder, red chili powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of vegan oil, and lemon juice. Mix well until the stuffing binds slightly. If needed, sprinkle a little water to help bind the mixture.
Divide the rested dough into equal-sized balls (approx. 8-10, depending on desired size). Similarly, divide the sattu stuffing into equal portions.
Take one dough ball and roll it out into a 3-inch circle. Place a portion of sattu stuffing in the center, gather the edges and seal tightly, ensuring that the stuffing does not escape.
Gently flatten the stuffed dough ball and roll it again into a 6-inch circle, being careful not to tear the dough.
Preheat a skillet or tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha onto the hot skillet.
Cook on one side until bubbles begin to appear or golden brown spots form. Flip and apply a little oil on the cooked side.
Flip again and press gently with a spatula, adding a little more oil, if necessary, and cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough and stuffing.
Serve the vegan sattu parathas hot with vegan yogurt or pickle for a delightful meal.
