Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough

  • Combine whole wheat flour, salt, and oil in a large bowl. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for at least 10 minutes.

Make the Filling

  • In a separate bowl, combine roasted and coarsely ground chickpeas, grated coconut, chopped green chili, chopped ginger, cumin seeds, and salt. Mix well.

Assemble the Parathas

  • Divide the dough into small, equal-sized balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle. Place 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center. Bring the edges together, pinching to seal, then gently shape into a ball.

Roll and Cook

  • Lightly dust the sealed dough ball with flour. Roll it again into a flat circle (about 6 inches in diameter). Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the paratha for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through, brushing with oil or ghee as needed.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Serve the warm parathas immediately. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Travel Parathas

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of garam masala or turmeric to the filling.
  • If you prefer a less spicy paratha, reduce the amount of green chili or omit it altogether.
  • To make the parathas ahead of time, cook them and then store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage. Reheat before serving.
  • For a vegetarian option, ensure your oil and ghee (if used) are vegetarian-friendly.
