Quick and Simple Aloo Parantha


 Aloo Parantha

Prep Time: 30 mins
Cooking Time: 15 mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
For Dough:
1 cup of whole wheat flour
1 tbsp maida
2-3 tsp oil
Salt to taste
Water as required

For Aloo Stuffing:
4-5 Potatoes boiled
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp red chilli powder
½ tsp pepper powder
1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
Salt to taste

Method:
  1. Knead the flour and maida together into soft dough and let it rest for 30 mins.
  2. Mash the boiled potatoes and mix all the spices.

Step 1: Take a portion of the dough and divide into 2 smaller potions and roll into 2 small rotis.

Step 2: Take a roti and spread the aloo stuffing on it and cover it with another roti.


Step 3: Curl the edges of the 2 rotis together.



Step 4: Roll the parantha with a rolling pin or pat it with your fingers to flatten it.




Step 5: Heat a tawa or a griddle and put cook the parantha on both sides.

Step 6: Add oil or butter and cook on both sides till its crisp.


Aloo Parantha is ready. Serve it with pickle and curd.



Co-zy Tips:
  1. Allow the potatoes cool completely after boiling; else the filling will be too soggy and it will be difficult to roll the paranthas.
  2. You may add little chat masala to the stuffing to give it a tangy twist.
