Cooking Tools Required

12-inch nonstick skillet, 5-quart saucepot, Cutting board, Food Processor, griddle, Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Potato Masher, Rolling Pin, Sharp Knives, Top Stove

Ingredients

Dough:

4 cup whole wheat flour
2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon Nigella seeds

Filling:

4 each sweet potato peeled and cubed
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder regular or roasted
2 stalk green onion
2 tablespoon fresh cilantro
2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

Boil potatoes (cook until soft enough to be mashed).
To make the dough, mix the flour and nigella seeds in a bowl. Add a little water at a time and knead the dough by hand or in a food processor with half-moon shaped blades, by pulsing. Cover dough and set it aside.
When potatoes are cooked, mash in a bowl or pot. Add all the rest of the stuffing ingredients and mix well.
Divide the dough into however many balls for the servings selected and flatten them into dough-patties by smearing them with dry flour.
Divide filling into the number of servings selected and then fill each patty and bring the edges together in the center to make balls.
Flatten them and roll them out with a rolling pin, keeping them ½ cm thick.
Preheat a flat griddle. Place paratha on heated griddle and cook until browned on one side. Flip and cook until browned on the other side.

Optional for serving:

Chutney

Reheating Instructions
