• 1/2 cup Peanuts (Lightly roasted, skins removed, coarsely ground)
• 2-3 pieces Green Chilies (Finely chopped; adjust to heat preference)
• 1 tsp Fresh Ginger (Grated)
• 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds (Whole) (Adds earthy flavor)

Instructions

1. Roast Sabudana

   Heat a pan over low heat, add 1 cup sabudana and roast lightly, stirring continuously until a faint aroma appears. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

   Time: PT5M

2. Grind Roasted Sabudana

   Transfer the cooled sabudana to a mixer and pulse until it becomes a fine powder, similar to coarse flour.

   Time: PT2M

3. Prepare Potatoes

   Boil two medium potatoes until tender (about 10 minutes), peel them while still warm and grate using a fine grater.

   Time: PT12M

4. Roast and Grind Peanuts

   In the same pan, lightly roast ½ cup peanuts until golden, then rub between a kitchen towel to remove skins. Coarsely grind the peanuts in the mixer.

   Time: PT5M

5. Make Sabudana Batter

   In a large bowl combine the powdered sabudana, gradually add about 3 cups water while stirring to form a smooth batter. Add the grated potatoes, ground peanuts, 2‑3 finely chopped green chilies, 1 tsp grated ginger, ½ tsp whole cumin seeds, ½ tsp rock salt, and 2 tbsp chopped coriander. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated and the batter spreads easily from a spoon but is not runny.

   Time: PT8M

6. Prepare Vrat Chutney

   In the mixer, combine the remaining coriander leaves, green chilies, ginger, a small handful of roasted peanuts, cumin seeds, a pinch of rock salt, and 1 tbsp yogurt. Blend to a smooth paste.

   Time: PT3M

7. Heat Tawa

   Place a tawa on medium heat, let it become hot, then lightly brush with ghee.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium heat

8. Cook Parathas

   Drop a heaping teaspoon of batter onto the tawa, gently spread into a small circle (about 4‑5 inches). Cook for 2‑3 minutes until the underside turns golden, flip, and cook the other side for another 2‑3 minutes. Add a few drops of ghee around the edges if desired. Repeat with remaining batter, keeping the heat medium.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: Medium heat

9. Serve

   Serve the hot sabudana parathas immediately with the freshly prepared vrat chutney on the side.
