Aloo Paratha

Good morning friends.... Heavy rain still continues in Chennai.... First two days of rain in summer season giving much happiness.... But when it extends for more days, little fear in the minds of Chennai people whether December flood will occur again...cant avoid that feel.... But i blame people for Chennai too for all happening, the least vote recorded in tamilnadu in Chennai city only, in rural voting percentage is very high, 85%, but chennai city, voting is very low, 60%.... So when city people cant spend or take efforts to vote, then whats is use in blaming government, politicians, bad roads, drainage systems etc.... I feel happy to see interest in rural people to vote, but feel so bad to see laziness or carelessness of city people to avoid voting... That too this year election commission took much effort to increase vote percentage.... But voting reduced than previous time , mainly due to city people.....

Ok let me come to my breakfast... Alooo paratha... Yesterday seeing posts in food group, i developed desire to prepare aloo parotta... I used wheat flour and very little maida and prepared, had it with curd.... Tasted good...

For dough

Wheat flour - 2 cups
Ghee - 1 tsp
Salt - little

For filling

Potatoes - 3
Green Chillies - 1
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
Garam Masala - 1/2 tsp
Ginger - 1/2 inch
Mango Powder - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves -  few

Method

Mix wheat flour, little salt, water, one teaspoon of ghee, together to form soft dough and keep it covered for 15 minutes. Can use pure wheat flour, or mix of wheat and maida, both will taste good.

cook potato in pressure pan, mash it, add nicely chopped green chillies, ginger, red chilli piwder, garam masala, salt, mango powder, mix everything together.

Makes balls out of chappathi dough... Roll it  to cricle.. Spread potato mix stuffing over it..

Sprinkle little wheat flour over it


Roll another ball and place it over it and roll together little.


The  place it over hot dosa tawa or kadai, tawa should be hot when place it, then flip it, spread oil or ghee over it.... Then again flip... Spread oil or ghee over it... Like this two to threee times flip it, you will get crispy aloo paratha...
