Directions

Combine the flour and water in a bowl and knead until it forms a smooth round ball similar to a stiff pizza dough. Cover the dough and set aside.

Put the mashed potatoes, red onion, fenugreek leaves, garam masala, and cilantro into a bowl and mix well. Taste for seasoning and add salt, and pepper, to taste.

Take a piece of dough about the size of a golf ball and roll it into a disc with your fingers. Lightly dust a work surface with flour and using a lightly-floured rolling pin, roll out the disc into a thin patty (like a tortilla).

Place 1/4 cup of the filling into the middle of the patty and then fold the edge of the dough over the mixture and form into a ball, with the filling in the center. Roll out the paratha gently, being careful not to squeeze the filling out.

Put a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and place a paratha into it. Cook until brown bubbly spots appear and then flip the paratha and cook the second side until it is done, about 3 minutes per side. Continue until all the parathas are done.

    These were surprisingly easy to make. They were very good, even my toddler loved them with cottage cheese for dipping. I used leftover mashed potatoes.

    Wow- these were surprisingly easy to make! Be sure to thoroughly mash the potatoes so they don’t tear the dough when rolling. I didn’t have fenugreek leaves so used fresh celery leaves and cooked the potatoes in chicken stock. I will definitely be make this again. Served it with the south Indian chicken- amazing!
