Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Sattu (roasted gram flour)
• 1 small, finely chopped Onion
• 1 finely chopped Green chili
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Coriander leaves
• 1 inch, grated Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Dry mango powder (amchur)
• 2 teaspoons Oil
• None as needed Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. Cover and set aside for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix sattu, chopped onion, green chili, coriander leaves, grated ginger, cumin seeds, carom seeds, salt, and dry mango powder. Add a teaspoon of oil and mix well to form a cohesive filling. This mixture should be moist but not wet.

Step 3

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll into balls. Flatten each ball slightly to form a small disc.

Step 4

Take one disc and place a generous tablespoon of the sattu filling in the center. Carefully bring the edges together and seal the filling inside, pinching off any excess dough.

Step 5

Gently flatten and roll out the stuffed dough ball into a paratha, about 6 inches in diameter, using minimal dry flour to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on the hot skillet.

Step 7

Cook the paratha until bubbles form on the surface, then flip over and cook the other side until golden brown. Use a few drops of oil to lightly grease the surface if necessary.

Step 8

Repeat the process for the remaining dough and filling.

Step 9

Serve hot with yogurt or any low-fat pickle for a flavorful, guilt-free meal.
