Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Roasted gram flour (sattu)
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 pieces Green chilies, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon Ajwain (carom seeds)
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0 as needed Water
• 3 tablespoons Vegan oil (for making dough and cooking)

Directions

Step 1

To prepare the dough, take the whole wheat flour in a large mixing bowl, add 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of vegan oil, and mix well. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth, pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 2

In another bowl, prepare the stuffing by mixing roasted gram flour (sattu), chopped onion, green chilies, coriander leaves, grated ginger, cumin seeds, ajwain, turmeric powder, red chili powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of vegan oil, and lemon juice. Mix well until the stuffing binds slightly. If needed, sprinkle a little water to help bind the mixture.

Step 3

Divide the rested dough into equal-sized balls (approx. 8-10, depending on desired size). Similarly, divide the sattu stuffing into equal portions.

Step 4

Take one dough ball and roll it out into a 3-inch circle. Place a portion of sattu stuffing in the center, gather the edges and seal tightly, ensuring that the stuffing does not escape.

Step 5

Gently flatten the stuffed dough ball and roll it again into a 6-inch circle, being careful not to tear the dough.

Step 6

Preheat a skillet or tawa over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha onto the hot skillet.

Step 7

Cook on one side until bubbles begin to appear or golden brown spots form. Flip and apply a little oil on the cooked side.

Step 8

Flip again and press gently with a spatula, adding a little more oil, if necessary, and cook until both sides are golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining dough and stuffing.

Step 10

Serve the vegan sattu parathas hot with vegan yogurt or pickle for a delightful meal.
