Potato Stuffed Paratha
Soft Indian whole-wheat flatbread stuffed with a flavorful spiced potato filling and cooked until golden.
Potato Stuffed Paratha, commonly known as Aloo Paratha, is a beloved Indian flatbread filled with seasoned mashed potatoes. The soft whole-wheat dough surrounds a savory mixture flavored with cumin, garam masala, cilantro and green chili before being rolled and cooked on a hot griddle. It makes a hearty breakfast, brunch or lunch and is traditionally served with yogurt, pickle or chutney. Keep the potato filling dry and completely cooled before stuffing so the parathas roll easily without tearing.
