It is sattu stuffed paratha.
The sattu stuffing can be prepared exactly like
the stuffing for litti, given in our recipe
section. Then it is stuffed inside the atta
(flour) dough and made in round paratha and
cooked with ghee or oil. I will give the
stuffing ingredients again.Ingredients
• 1 cup sattu
• 2 or more green chilies, finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 inch ginger, finely chopped
• ½ cup fresh dhaniya (cilantro) leaves,
finely chopped
• ½ tsp. mangrella (nigella or onion seed)
• 1 tsp. ajwain
• Juice of 1 lemon
• Salt to taste
• 2 tblsp. mustard or olive oil
• 1 or 2 tblsp. mircha achar masala
(fillings from the red chili pickle)
Mix all the
filling ingredients with sattu together nicely.
Add ¼ to ½ cup water to make the stuffing moist
and easy to fill.
Make dough with 1½ cup of wheat flour. The dough
should be soft but not too soft. Keep covered
for 15 minutes.
Take a small amount of dough like the amount you
take to make roti. Dust with dry atta and make a
small disc with hand, then take about 2 tsp of
the stuffing and put in the middle of the dough
disc. Press the sattu stuffing a little with
finger and close the dough from all side so the
stuffing does not comes out of the dough. Now
press this lightly with palm, dust with dry
flour and with the help of belan make round
paratha. Heat a tawa and cook the paratha first
on both the sides, then add ghee or oil and cook
until crispy on both the sides.
