🥣 Preparation

Step 1: Make the Dough

1. In a large bowl, combine all the flours, salt, ajwain, and oil.
2. Slowly add warm water and knead into a soft, smooth dough.
3. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20–25 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the Stuffing

1. Heat 1 tsp oil in a pan, add ginger, green chili, and onion. Sauté lightly.
2. Add grated carrot, cabbage, spinach, and capsicum. Cook for 3–4 minutes (do not overcook, keep it crunchy).
3. Mix in turmeric, chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt.
4. Switch off the flame, add lemon juice/amchur, and chopped coriander.
5. Let the mixture cool completely before stuffing.

Step 3: Assemble the Paratha

1. Divide the dough into medium-sized balls.
2. Roll one ball into a small circle, place 2 tbsp of stuffing in the center.
3. Bring the edges together and seal properly.
4. Roll out again into a flat paratha (gently, so stuffing doesn’t spill).

Step 4: Cook the Paratha

1. Heat a tawa (griddle) on medium flame.
2. Place the rolled paratha and cook until golden spots appear.
3. Flip and apply little oil/ghee on both sides.
4. Cook until crisp and evenly golden brown.
