Ingredients
For the Dough
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1 tsp Salt or to taste
- 2 tbsp Refined Oil plus extra for cooking
- 3/4 cup Water add more as needed to form a dough, approximately
For the Filling
- 1 cup Spring Onions finely chopped
- 1 tsp Carom Seed carom seeds
- 2 Chilies finely chopped, green
- 1 tsp Cumin Seeds roasted and ground
- 1/2 tsp Chaat Masala
- 1/4 cup Cheese grated
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- Combine whole wheat flour, salt, and 2 tablespoons of oil in a bowl. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
Make the Filling
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the ajwain seeds and let them splutter. Add the chopped spring onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
- Add the green chilies, roasted cumin powder, and chaat masala. Stir well and cook for another minute.
- Remove from heat and stir in the grated cheese. Let the mixture cool completely.
Assemble and Cook the Parathas
- Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a 4-inch circle.
- Place a spoonful of the spring onion and cheese filling in the center of each circle.
- Bring the edges of the dough together to enclose the filling, pinching to seal. Gently flatten the stuffed ball into a thick circle.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or flat pan over medium heat. Cook the paratha for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking and to create layers.
Serve
- Serve the Spring Onion and Cheese Parathas hot, with your favorite chutney or pickle.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Parathas
- For extra flaky parathas, use a little ghee instead of refined oil in the dough.
- Don't overstuff the parathas; it can cause them to break during cooking.
- If the dough is too dry add a little more water, if it is too sticky add a little more flour.
- For a richer flavor, you can toast the cumin seeds before grinding them into a powder.
