Ingredients for Stuffed Paratha:

- 1/4 teaspoon ajwain (carom seeds)
- 1 tablespoon oil or ghee
- Water (as needed)
- 1 tablespoon butter or ghee (for cooking)
For the Filling:
- 2 medium potatoes (boiled and mashed) OR
- 200 grams paneer (crumbled) OR
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (boiled and mashed)
- 1 small onion (finely chopped)
- 1 green chili (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
- Salt to taste
- Fresh coriander (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions for Preparing the Dough:
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, salt, and ajwain. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Add Oil or Ghee: Add the tablespoon of oil or ghee to the flour mixture to make the parathas soft.
- Add Water Gradually: Slowly add water to the mixture, stirring as you go, until you form a soft, smooth dough.
- Knead the Dough: Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it becomes soft and elastic.
- Rest the Dough: Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
Preparing the Filling:
- Cook the Filling: Heat oil in a pan and sauté onions, green chilies, and ginger-garlic paste until golden.
- Add Spices: Stir in the garam masala, cumin powder, and salt. Cook for 1-2 minutes before adding the mashed potatoes, crumbled paneer, or vegetables. Mix thoroughly and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Finishing Touches: Remove the pan from heat and mix in the chopped coriander for a fresh burst of flavor.
Rolling and Cooking the Parathas:
- Divide the Dough: After resting, divide the dough into small balls (8-10 pieces).
