Ingredients

  • 2 medium Sweet potato
  • 1 cup Coconut flour
  • 1 cup Arrowroot powder
  • 2 large Egg
  • 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger paste
  • 1 small, finely chopped Green chili
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into cubes. Boil them in a pot of water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.

Step 2

Mash the cooled sweet potatoes until smooth. Add cumin seeds, ground coriander, ginger paste, chopped green chili, salt, and chopped cilantro. Mix well to make a flavorful filling.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix the coconut flour and arrowroot powder. Create a well in the center and add the eggs and a tablespoon of melted coconut oil.

Step 4

Gradually add water to the flour mixture, stirring until a smooth, pliable dough forms. If needed, use a little more flour or water to adjust the consistency.

Step 5

Divide the dough into equal-sized balls, about the size of a golf ball. Roll each into a 3-inch circle.

Step 6

Place a spoonful of the sweet potato filling in the center of each circle and gather the edges to seal it. Flatten gently with your palms.

Step 7

Roll out each filled dough ball gently, applying even pressure to make a parantha about 6 inches in diameter. Use additional arrowroot powder if needed to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.

Step 9

Place the rolled-out parantha in the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining paranthas.

Step 10

Serve hot with your choice of Paleo-friendly chutney or yogurt.
