Ingredients

• 3 pieces Potatoes (medium size, boiled, peeled and mashed smooth)
• 1.5 cups Whole Wheat Flour (sifted)
• 2 cups Water (room temperature)
• 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
• 3 pieces Green Chilies (finely chopped, adjust to heat preference)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh Coriander Leaves (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Salt (or to taste)
• 0.5 teaspoon Kasuri Methi (crushed)
• 0.25 teaspoon Garam Masala (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin Seeds (crushed between palms)
• 0.25 teaspoon Ajwain (crushed)
• 0.5 teaspoon Chaat Masala (optional, for tangy flavor)
• pinch Turmeric Powder (for color, use sparingly)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper Powder (freshly ground)
• 2 tablespoons Oil or Ghee (for cooking on tawa)

Instructions

1. Boil Potatoes

   Place the three medium potatoes in a pot, cover with water and boil until tender (about 15 minutes). Drain and let cool slightly.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: 100°C

2. Mash Potatoes

   Peel the boiled potatoes and mash them in a bowl until smooth with no lumps.

   Time: PT5M

3. Make Flour Base

   In a mixing bowl add 1.5 cups whole wheat flour. Gradually pour in water while stirring to form a soft, non‑sticky dough.

   Time: PT10M

4. Combine Potato Mash with Dough

   Add the mashed potatoes to the dough and mix thoroughly until the potatoes are fully incorporated.

   Time: PT5M

5. Add Flavorings

   Stir in chopped onion, green chilies, coriander, salt, kasuri methi, garam masala, cumin, ajwain, chaat masala, turmeric, and black pepper. Mix well.

   Time: PT5M

6. Rest the Dough (Optional)

   Let the dough rest for 5 minutes covered with a damp cloth to relax the gluten.

   Time: PT5M

7. Heat the Tawa

   Place the tawa on a low flame and let it become hot (medium heat).

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: medium heat

8. Shape and Spread Paratha

   Take a medium‑sized ball of dough, place it on the hot tawa, and using a spatula spread it gently into a 5‑mm thick circle, similar to a chilla. The thickness should be medium – not too thin, not too thick.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: medium heat

9. Cook First Side

   Cook for 2‑3 minutes until the surface looks dry and golden‑brown spots appear.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: medium heat

10. Flip and Cook Other Side

    Flip the paratha, drizzle a little oil/ghee around the edges, and cook another 2‑3 minutes until both sides are golden and the interior is cooked through.

    Time: PT3M

    Temperature: medium heat

11. Repeat for Remaining Dough

    Repeat steps 8‑10 for the remaining dough balls, adjusting heat as needed to avoid burning.

    Time: PT10M

    Temperature: medium heat

Chef Tips from the Video
