Print RecipeIngredients
For the Paratha dough
- 2 cups of whole wheat flour
- Water to knead the dough
- Salt to taste
For the Stuffing
- 200 gms cheese grated
- 1 cup of grated broccoli
- ½ cup fresh finely chopped coriander
- 1 finely chopped green chilli
- ½ tsp black pepper
- Salt to taste
Instructions
For the Paratha
Take the flour in a bowl
Knead a soft dough, like the way we do it for chapattis or any other stuffed paratha
Leave it to rest for a while approx. 10-15 mins
For the Stuffing
Take the grated cheese and broccoli in a bowl
Mix the coriander, green chilli, black pepper
Add the salt and mix well
Your paratha stuffing is ready
Let’s make the Paratha now
Make about 8 equal balls from the dough
Take a ball of dough and roll it on a rolling pan till about 3-4 inches in diameter
Add a couple of spoons of the stuffing in the center.
Pull the ends of the rolled paratha over the stuffing and seal it properly. Remove any excessive dough if required.
Make this into a ball again
Roll it to about 6 inches in size or to whatever best size you can manage
Heat up a tava
Put the rolled paratha on the tava and cook on medium heat on both sides
Once the paratha is cooked, increase the heat and apply some butter to the paratha on both sides and fry on both sides
Bring it down from the fire and serve
Notes
This paratha will go well with a Sweet and Spicy tomato ketchup.
