Aloo Paratha Set

Aloo Paratha Set is a hearty breakfast or quick lunch with a golden crust and warmly spiced potato center.

Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole-wheat flour (atta)
• about 3/4 cup Water, for the dough
• 4 medium Potato, boiled and cooled
• 1 Green chili, minced
• 1 tsp Ginger, minced
• 1/4 cup Coriander leaves, chopped
• 1 tsp Cumin powder
• 1 tsp Coriander powder
• 1/2 tsp Amchur (dried mango powder)
• 1/4 tsp Garam masala
• 4 tbsp Ghee or butter, for the griddle
• 1 cup Yogurt
• 2 tbsp Mixed achar
• to taste Salt

Steps

1. Makes 4 parathas, serving 2. Knead the atta with water and a little salt into a soft dough and rest it 20 minutes under a cloth.
2. Boil the potatoes, cool them completely, and grate them rather than mashing them warm; hot or wet potato makes the filling leak through the dough.
3. Mix the grated potato with the green chili, ginger, coriander leaves, cumin, coriander powder, amchur, garam masala and salt, adding no water at all.
4. Roll a small disc of dough, set a ball of filling in the middle, gather the edges up over it, and pinch the top shut.
5. Flatten the parcel, dust it with flour, and roll it out gently and evenly to about 7 inches, working from the centre outward.
6. Cook it on a hot tawa until pale spots appear, flip, smear the surface with ghee, then flip again.
7. Press the edges down with a folded cloth so they cook too, until both sides are golden and blistered.
8. Serve hot off the pan with a bowl of cold yogurt and a spoon of achar.
