Procedure For Making Aloo Parathas:

  • The most time consuming job for this Indian recipe is kneading the dough. Do it on the night before you try this lunch box recipe.
  • While kneading the dough, add a bit of ghee and knead into a soft dough. Cover it with a wet cloth overnight.
  • The next morning boil peeled potatoes in the pressure cooker (2 whistles). Peeling them in advance saves time.
  • While the potatoes are being boiled, chop the spices. Also make ball (1 inch diameter) out of the dough.
  • Use your thumb to dig a small hole on the centre of the balls.
  • Remove the boiled potatoes from the cooker and soak them in cold water for 2 minutes.
  • Mash the potatoes with the back of a serving spoon and add all the spices to it. Mix well to make the filling.
  • Now stuff one tablespoon of this filling into each dough ball. Seal the dough hollow by maneuvering it with your hands.
  • Keep the flat pan (tawa) on the flame when you start rolling out the paratha. The pan needs to be hot by the time you start.
  • The trick is not to put too much pressure while rolling out the parathas.
  • Fry both the sides of each paratha with a pinch of ghee on low flame.
