Step-By-Step Triangle Paratha Recipe
Ingredients for Triangle Paratha:
-
2 cups whole wheat flour
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1 tablespoon ghee or oil (for dough)
-
Warm water (adjust as needed)
-
Ghee or oil (for cooking)
Ingredients for Filling:
-
1 cup boiled and mashed potatoes (or paneer, mixed vegetables, or any filling of choice)
-
1 onion, finely chopped
-
1 green chili, chopped (optional)
-
1 teaspoon cumin powder
-
1 teaspoon garam masala
-
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
-
Salt to taste
-
Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
Instructions for Preparing the Filling:
-
Prepare the Filling: Heat oil in a pan and sauté chopped onions and green chili until golden. Add the mashed potatoes (or chosen filling) and spices (cumin powder, garam masala, chili powder, and salt). Stir well to mix everything evenly. Cook for a few minutes and set aside to cool.
Instructions for Preparing the Dough:

Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add ghee or oil, then gradually add warm water, kneading to form a smooth dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 20 minutes.
-
Roll the Parathas: Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin, even circle. Place a spoonful of the prepared filling in the center and fold the dough over to form a triangle. Seal the edges to ensure the filling doesn’t escape.
-
Cook the Parathas: Heat a griddle or tawa and cook the stuffed triangle parathas, brushing with ghee or oil, until golden and crispy on both sides.
Assembling and Cooking the Triangle Paratha:
-
Shape and Cook: Once the dough is rolled and filled, cook each triangle paratha on a hot griddle, pressing gently to ensure it cooks evenly on both sides. Brush with more ghee for extra crispiness.
-
Serve: Serve the Triangle Parathas hot with ADF Soul’s pickles and chutney for a perfect balance of flavors.
Tips for Perfect Triangle Paratha:

Use Fresh Dough: Fresh dough yields a soft and pliable paratha that will crisp up beautifully.
