Aaloo Paratha


Aaloo paratha is everyones favourite breakfast. I like to make it with the aalo sabji or bhaji of pav bhaji. If you are making pav bhaji for dinner then make it little more in quantity for making aalo paratha as the next morning breakfast. The paratha made of buttery pav bhaji is just out of this world!

Note the ingredients and recipe.


Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup bhaji( bhaji of pav bhaji or any aaloo sabji)

1 cup wheat flour

1 tsp carom seeds

1 tsp sesame seeds

salt to taste


Note: Most of the times you may not have bhaji available at the time of making aaloo paratha. Then make a aaloo paratha mix using

3 medium sized mashed boiled potatoes,

1 tsp chilli powder,

1/2 tsp turmeric,

1/2 tablespoon oil or butter,

1 tsp cumin seeds,

1 small onion finely chopped and

1 teaspoon ginger garlic paste.


Use this mix in the recipe instead of bhaji.


Directions:

Make a dough mixing all ingredients together and using little water if required. Knead it well to make nice soft dough.

Divide the dough into 8-10 parts. Make a ball of each part and roll into a 7-8 inch round parathas.

Heat a griddle on medium heat and roast the paratha 5 min on each side. Brush with ghee or butter while roasting.


Serve hot with plain yogurt and mango pickle. Yummy breakfast!
