  • Boiled potato: 1/2 cup
  • Garlic paste: 1 tsp
  • Ginger paste: 1 tsp
  • Green chilli paste: 1/2 tsp
  • Red chilli powder: 1 tsp
  • Coriander powder: 1 tsp
  • Cumin powder: 1 tsp

Method

  1. Mix all the filling ingredients well and set aside.
  2. Make a nice, smooth dough with the atta, salt, oil and water.
  3. Let it rest for about an hour.
  4. Take a small ball of dough and shape it into a cup, or roll it out like a phulka (not too thin).
  5. Fill it with about twice as much palak and paneer filling as dough, seal it and roll it out into a paratha.
  6. Cook on a heavy griddle with a little oil until nicely browned.
