Aloo Paratha

22nd March 2015 By Nidhi Agrawal Leave a Comment

Aloo paratha is one of the most popular breakfast dishes throughout western and northern India. Aloo (potato)  paratha is basically unleavened dough stuffed with a spiced mixture of mashed potato, which is rolled out and cooked on a hot tawa with butter or ghee. Usually butter, pickle, chutney or curd is served with it and in rural parts of northern and western India, sweet lassi is served along with it. A must try!!

  2. Place a little stuffing in the centre of the circle.
  3. Bring together all the sides in the centre and seal tightly.
  4. Roll again into a circle of around 6inch diameter circle using a little flour for dusting.
  5. Heat a hot non-stick tava and cook the paratha on medium heat, using a little ghee until golden brown spots appear on both the sides.
  6. Repeat with the remaining dough and stuffing to make rest of the parathas.
  7. Serve immediately with butter, pickle, chutney or fresh curds.
