Peas paratha / mutter paratha recipe

Hi everyone,

Stuffed parathas are easy to make, but only if you know the knack of rolling. If you learn that, then you can make it easy for lunch box for kids and even easy for dinner meals. They are healthy,not to mention. I am trying peas paratha for first time and found it damn easy and tasty too

Ingredients

peas - 1 & 1/2 cups
Green chilli - 3
Ginger - 2 inch pieces
Garam masala powder - 3/4 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/8 tsp
Ajwain/jeera - 1 tsp
Chopped coriander leaves - 2 tbsp
Lemon juice(optional) - 1 tsp
Salt - as needed

For dough

Wheat flour - 1 & 1/4 cup
Oil - 2 tblsp
Salt & water - as needed


Method


  • First make the dough and let it rest for 10 mins minimum, mix  flour with salt and oil and add warm water to make a soft and smooth dough.
  • Pressure cook peas with a pinch of sugar mixed,don’t add water. Cool down.
  • Grind green chilli and ginger first roughly and then add the green peas and grind coarsely. Mix salt,garam masala,turmeric,ajwain,coriander leaves and lemon(if desired) with the peas and make equal sized balls out of both dough and peas stuffing.
  • Roll thick circle and keep the stuffing inside and cover the stuffing and make a ball. Roll it out with generous dusting with flour and make out thick parathas.
  • Cook on both sides until golden spots appear,with oil/ghee drizzled over. Serve with chutney or pickle.
