Ingredients
 
 

  • 11/2 cups Rajgira Flour
  • 2 boiled potatoes
  • 1-2 green chilies finely chopped
  • 1 tsp cumin powder/jeera powder
  • ½ cup warm water preferably
  • 1 ½ tsp Rock salt/ Sendha namak
  • 2 tbsp ghee or cooking oil

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, boil potatoes, peel the skin, and mash it till there are no lumps.
  • Take a big round vessel, add Rajgira flour, boiled potatoes, green chilies, and mix well.
  • Now add cumin powder/jeera powder to the flour.
  • Also add rock salt in the dough and mix all the ingredients well.
  • Since we have added boiled potatoes, there is enough moisture in the dough, so add water slowly as required.
  • Knead it into a soft dough and keep it aside for 10 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into equal parts and start rolling it. Take a cling plastic sheet, place it, and gently press the dough ball.
  • Roll it very gently with the help of a rolling pin and without breaking the edges of the flour.
  • Heat griddle and apply a tsp of ghee or oil and gently lift the cling sheet and place the rolled paratha on the griddle.
  • Once you see the buble or light brown color, flip the parathas.
  • Now apply ghee on the parathas and cook it with ladle till they are brown and cooked. Once done carefully place them on another plate and repeat the same procedure for rest of the parathas.
