Step-By-Step Pyaz Paratha Recipe
Here’s how to make the perfect Pyaz Paratha:
Ingredients for Pyaz Paratha:
-
2 cups whole wheat flour
-
1/4 teaspoon salt
-
1 tablespoon oil or ghee
-
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
-
1 teaspoon coriander powder
-
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
-
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
-
1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander
-
1 large onion, finely chopped
-
1 teaspoon garam masala
-
Water (as needed)
-
1 tablespoon butter or ghee (for cooking)
Instructions for Preparing the Dough:
-
Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, salt, cumin seeds, coriander powder, turmeric, red chili powder, and fresh coriander.
-
Add Oil or Ghee: Add a tablespoon of oil or ghee to the flour mixture and mix it to make the dough soft and pliable.
-
Add Water Gradually: Slowly add water, stirring continuously until the dough comes together.
-
Knead the Dough: Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
-
Rest the Dough: Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
Preparing the Pyaz Paratha:
-
Prepare the Filling: Heat a little oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onions with garam masala until soft and golden brown. Let it cool. If the onions release water, squeeze it out to prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
-
Roll the Dough: Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a flat circle and place a spoonful of the onion mixture in the center. Fold the edges over the filling and seal the dough into a ball. Gently roll it out again into a stuffed paratha.

Cook the Paratha: Heat a tawa or griddle over medium heat. Place the rolled dough on the hot griddle and cook each side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
-
Add Butter or Ghee: Brush the cooked paratha with butter or ghee for an extra burst of flavor.
Tips for Perfect Pyaz Paratha:
-
Customize the Spice Level: Adjust the chili powder and spices to suit your preference for heat.
