Green Peas Paratha
Ingredients :
For the stuffing :
2 teacups boiled green peas
5 green chillies, finely chopped
1 tsp jeera
1 tbsp ghee
salt to taste
For the dough :
3 teacups whole meal flour
2 tbsp ghee
½ tsp salt
For the parathas :
Ghee for frying
Method :
For the stuffing :
Mash the boiled green peas. Heat the ghee in a vessel and sauté
the jeera.
Put the green chillies, sauté for 1 minute and then put the
mashed peas and salt. Cook for 1 minute and allow the mixture
to cool.
For the dough :
Sieve the flour with the salt. Apply ghee to the flour.
Use water and make into small parts.
Knead properly and divide into 10 to 12 parts.
How to proceed :
Take a small part of the dough, flatten a little and put 1 tbsp
of the green peas mixture in the center.
Cover the mixture by drawing up the edges towards the
center.
Press on a floured board and roll out into a round as large as
saucer.
Put the paratha on a hot tava (griddle). Cook for a minute or
two and turn once. After 1 minute, put a little ghee around the
edges, turn again and fry the other side. When brown patches
appear on both sides, the paratha is ready.
Repeat the same procedure for the rest of the dough.
Ready to serve hot.
