Instructions
 

Prepare the Filling

  • Grind the cashews, sugar, and cardamom until finely powdered. Mix this powder with the desiccated coconut. Set aside.

Make the Dough

  • In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Let the dough rest, covered, for 15-20 minutes.

Assemble the Parathas

  • Take a small portion of the dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten the ball slightly. Place 1 tablespoon of the apple filling in the center. Gently bring the edges of the dough together to completely enclose the filling, sealing tightly.

Roll and Cook the Parathas

  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the stuffed dough ball into a thin, circular paratha. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or tawa over medium heat. Cook the paratha for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly puffed, pressing gently with a spatula to cook evenly. Brush with melted ghee or butter during cooking.

Serve

  • Serve the hot parathas with grated cheese and garlic chutney or pickle, if desired.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Dry Fruit & Apple Stuffed Parathas

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves to the apple filling.
  • If the dough feels too dry, add a teaspoon of milk at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Don't overfill the parathas; this can make them difficult to seal and cook evenly.
  • For a crispier paratha, cook it over medium-high heat.

  1. Loved the description of your recipe. I can totally relate to your situation. Kids are sometimes so fussy that they refuse to eat. Even I struggle with my daughter at times. I like the idea of adding a fruit in paratha, as I have never done that but can we avoid maida?5 stars
