Aloo Paratha

For making Aloo Parantha you need-
Potatoes 5 (boiled, peeled and well mashed)
2 cups Wheat flour
2 tsps Coriander powder
1 tsp. Cumin powder
1/2 tsp. Cumin seeds
1 tsp. Red chilli powder
Salt to taste
Coriander leaves(finely chopped)
Ginger grated
2 tbsps. Oil



Way to prepare Aloo paratha-
Mix all the ingredients into a large bowl.Rub together to form a crumbly mix.Now slowly add water,little by little knead well to make a smooth, pliable dough. Cover and set aside for an hour.

Roll the dough between your hands till they are smooth and without cracks. Very lightly flour a rolling board and roll each ball into a circle.

Heat a griddle and fry the parathas one at a time. Put a paratha on the griddle.Flip when you see tiny bubbles rise on the surface of the paratha.

Now drizzle a bit of oil on the top and spread well over the surface of the paratha. Flip again in 30 seconds and drizzle oil on this surface too.

The paratha is done when both sides are crispy and golden brown.


Aloo Paratha is a popular Indian breakfast recipe. A paratha(especially a stuffed one) tastes simply great even with a blob of butter spread on it.You can even try it with thick spicy curries
but it tastes best when served with pickle and curd.
