Indian Bread Recipe - Potato (Alu) Paratha



Ingredients :
2 medium potatoes (boiled, peeled, mashed and cooled to room temperature)
1 tsp. Coriander powder
1 tsp. Cumin powder
1/2 tsp. amchoor powder/mango powder
1 green chili minced (optional)
1 tsp. Chilli powder
1 tsp. lime/lemon juice
salt to taste
finely chopped cilantro
2 cups wheat flour


Directions :
Mix mashed potatoes, coriander powder, cumin powder, mango powder, chopped green chilies, salt, cilantro, lime juice and chili powder.

Make small balls of the mixture.

Take a ball of dough slightly thicker than chapati (large egg size or peach size) and roll it to a circle 4-5 inches in diameter.

Place Potato mixture on it and again make it into a ball.

Seal the edges completely so that the stuffing does not come out.

Flatten these balls and roll into a 6 inch circle.

Pre-heat the griddle (tawa).

Turn it and spread little oil or butter and cook over low heat.

Turn it again and spread butter/oil on the other side.

Cook both sides till golden brown.

Serve with chutney, yogurt, steamed vegetable and Indian pickles (A variety of pickles and chutneys are available in our store).
