Chickpea Mushroom Stuffed Paratha
Ingredients
- paratha dough, See notes for links to recipes.
- 3 tablespoons chickpea mushroom mixture per flatbread
- 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon garam masala
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Steps
- Flour your surface. Take about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the paratha dough and roll into a ball, then roll out into a 6” to 8” inch circle, where the edges are a little thinner than the middle. Depending on the size of your paratha, add 2 to 4 tablespoons of the chickpea mushroom mixture in the center. If the mixture is too moist, coat it lightly with flour before placing on the paratha.
- Flatten out the chickpea mushroom mixture a little bit, then sprinkle on the spices and press them into the mixture.
- Fold over the flatbread into kind of a dumpling, then seal, flatten gently, and roll out carefully, sprinkling on more flour, as needed. Roll with a light hand, since the filling will be on the moist side. After rolling out, use your hands to dust off any extra flour. See the video for details.
- Cook on a skillet over medium-high heat for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side, or until the paratha starts to puff a little bit. Than, flip it over and spread on a few drops of oil, pressing to cook evenly until golden brown spots form. Flip and repeat with the oil on the other side.
- Serve with non-dairy yogurt sprinkled with cumin, cayenne, and salt as well as sides of Indian pickle, chutney, or a side salad.
