Paratha :- A flavoured, stuffed thick Chapathi (Indian Wheat Bread) greased with butter or Ghee makes a delicious and filling dish for BLD (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Sharing here with you a version without masala (made for guest who didn't like masala flavours) hence the flavour of potato will be dominating.



Ingridients :- 

For the chapathi, knead the dough as you do usually adding water, salt and little ghee to the whole wheat flour. Keept it aside, covered.

For stuffing :-
  1. Boiled & grated Potato - 2 Nos. (medium sized)
  2. Coriander leaves - 2 tbsp (finely chopped)
  3. Green Chillies - 3 Nos (finely chopped)
  4. Salt to taste
Ghee for greasing

Procedure :-



  • Divide the whole wheat dough into equal parts and shape into a round ball
  • Roll it into a small thick disk with the rolling pin
  • Place a ball of the potato mixture inside
  • Gather ends and press it, lightly roll into a ball shape
  • Dust the board with flour and place it over it, with the rolling pin spread it into a thick chapathi with very light pressure (so that the stuffing don't come out)
  • Heat tawa or a pan, grease with little ghee, place the rolled out paratha on it
  • Cook both sides till golden brown spots appears on a medium flame
  • Delicious aloo paratha (Potata Wheat Bread) is ready.
