Ingredients
For the Dough
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1 tsp Salt for the dough
- 3/4 cup Water add more as needed for desired dough consistency, approximately
For the Potato Filling
- 2 Potato boiled and mashed, medium-sized
- 1 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1 Chili finely chopped, green
- 1 tsp Chili Powder adjust to your spice preference, red
- 1/2 tsp Cumin Powder for added flavor, optional
- 1/4 tsp Garam Masala for added warmth, optional
For Cooking
- 4.5 tbsp Butter or as needed
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- Sieve the whole wheat flour and salt together. Gradually add the water while kneading to form a smooth, pliable dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 15 minutes.
Make the Potato Filling
- Mash the boiled potatoes thoroughly. Mix in the red chili powder, green chili, cumin powder (optional), garam masala (optional), and salt. Mix well to combine. Divide the potato mixture into 4 equal portions.
Assemble the Parathas
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a small ball. Flatten one ball, place a portion of the potato mixture in the center, and gently bring the edges of the dough together to enclose the filling, shaping it into a ball again.
Roll and Cook the Parathas
- Flatten the filled dough balls and roll them into 6-7 inch diameter circles. Sprinkle a little flour to prevent sticking.
Cook on the Tawa
- Heat a flat griddle or tawa over medium heat. Place a paratha on the hot surface and cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. Add 1/2 tablespoon of butter or oil to each side and continue to cook on low heat until golden brown and crispy.
Serve
- Serve hot Aloo Bhare Parathas with yogurt, chutney, or pickle.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Aloo Bhare Parathas
- For extra flavor, add finely chopped onions and cilantro to the potato filling.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if it's too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the parathas. Cook them in batches to ensure even browning.
- For a crispier paratha, cook it on medium-high heat for a shorter time, flipping frequently.
