Description

Indian cuisine varies from state to state, but one thing remains unchanged — the paratha. This translates roughly to 'layered flatbread': unleavened dough is rolled out several times, brushed with ghee, and pan-fried. There is also a second option, where a filling is placed between two thin flatbreads. To make it truly Indian, the filling should be quite spicy.

Ingredients

Potato - 5 pieces
Cilantro - 1.8 oz
Ground ancho chili pepper - 5 pieces
Mild Chili Spice - 1 tablespoon
Chili Flakes - 1 tablespoon
Wheat Flour - 14.1 oz
Salt - 1½ spoons
Ghee - 2.8 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Prepare the necessary ingredients.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and boil them until tender, then mash the cooked potatoes into a puree.

Step 3

Add a teaspoon of salt, ground chili, chili flakes, and chopped cilantro and green chili, then mix well.

Step 4

Combine the sifted flour, 300 ml of water, and half a teaspoon of salt.

Step 5

Knead a soft, but not sticky dough. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest for 20–30 minutes.

Step 6

Divide the dough into eight equal pieces and roll them into balls. Take two dough balls and flatten them into round patties.

Step 7

Place about 3 tablespoons of potato filling on one dough round, cover it with a second dough round, and seal the edges well. You can moisten the edges with water to make sealing easier.
