2 Medium size boiled potatoes
1 chopped onion
1 tbsp chopped coriander (dhania)
2green chillies , chopped
2 tsp dried mango powder (amchur)
1/2 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
Salt to taste
1 tsp oil
Method :
*For the dough…..
Sieve the flours with the salt. Add the oil and mix well. Add enough water and make a semi-soft dough. Keep the dough aside for 1/2 an hour.
*For the stuffing…….
Mash the potatoes coarsely or cut into very small pieces. Keep aside.
Add the cumin seeds, onion, green chillies, salt, coriander, chilli powder and amchur powder. Mash it so that there are no lumps. Ensure that your potato mash is not watery. Keep aside.
Then Make balls of the dough, Roll one ball at a time into a thick small circle, place the potato mash in the centre. Fold it, ensuring that no filling is exposed. Roll this dumpling so that it becomes a proper round again. Sprinkle some dry flour on the ball and the board. Very gently roll the ball in to a flat not to thin circle. Keep in mind that the stuffing should not come out. Cook the paratha on a tava (griddle), using a little oil until both sides are golden brown. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling to make more parathas. Now Alu Paratha is ready to eat.
