Ingredients



For the stuffing
1 1/2 cups boiled green peas
5 green chillies, finely chopped
1 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 tbsp ghee
salt to taste

For the dough
2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
2 tbsp ghee
1/2 tsp salt

For the parathas
 ghee for frying

Method

    For the stuffing
    1. Mash the boiled green peas.
    2. Heat the ghee in a vessel and fry the cumin seeds.
    3. Add the green chillies, fry for 1 minute and then add the mashed peas and salt.
    4. Cook for 1 minute and cool the mixture.

    For the dough
    1. Sieve the flour with the salt. Apply ghee to the flour. Add water and make into small portions.
    2. Knead very well and divide into 10 to 12 portions.

    How to proceed
    1. Take a small portion of the dough, flatten a little and put 1 tablespoon of the green peas mixture in the centre. Cover the mixture by drawing up the edges towards the centre. Press a floured board and roll out into a round as large as a saucer.
    2. Put the paratha on hot tava (or skillet), cook for a minute or two and turn once.
    3. After 1 minute, add a little ghee around the edges, turn again and fry the other side. When brown patches appear on both sides, the paratha is ready.
    4. Repeat for the rest of the dough.
    5. Serve hot.

    Tips
    1. Note : To make puris, use plain flour instead of whole meal flour and instead of steps 2 to 4 above, deep fry the puris until done.
