Ingredients

For the Dough

  • 1 cup Wheat Flour
  • Salt to taste
  • Water for making the dough

For the Stuffing

  • 1/2 cup Carrots grated
  • 1/4 cup Beetroot grated
  • 3/4 cup Cabbage grated
  • 1 small Potato boiled and mashed
  • 1 cup Cheese grated
  • 2 Green Chilies minced
  • Handful Coriander Leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Green Chilli Sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon Garam Masala
  • 1/4 teaspoon Chat Masala
  • Salt to taste

Other ingredients

  • Papad
  • 1 cup Cheese grated for garnish

Instructions

Making the Dough

  • Take the flour in a bowl, add salt and knead to a stiff dough adding just enough water.
  • Knead for 10 mins or until soft, cover, and keep aside for 15 minutes.

Making the Stuffing

  • Take the grated vegetables in a bowl, sprinkle salt over it and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Then gently squeeze the water from these veggies.
  • If you want to do this first and use this water to knead the dough also makes it good.
  • Next, add the rest of the ingredients to these veggies and mix well.
  • The stuffing has to be dry for it to get rolled out well. So make sure you add the mashed potato finally.
  • Divide the stuffing into two big balls.

Preparing the Paratha

  • Divide the dough into two balls.
  • Dust well and roll it into a 6” disc.
  • Place one of the stuffing balls in the center and gather the sides of the disc towards the center to close the stuffing.
  • Seal it to make it into a ball and flatten it with your hands.
  • Dust it well with dry flour and gently roll into an 8inch disc
  • Heat a tawa and grease well with oil as required.
  • Fry the papad in this oil, and keep it aside.
  • Next, cook the paratha until it gets brown spots on top.
  • Flip over and cook the other side.
  • Cook on low flame for the stuffing to be well cooked as well.
  • Drizzle some more oil, so the Paratha turns crispy.
  • Transfer to a serving plate.

Preparing the Sunflower Paratha

  • Using a pizza cutter, cut the paratha as though slicing a pizza, making sure to carefully cup only the top layer.
  • Do not cut through the paratha.
  • Carefully start opening the top layers one by one. This will look like a sunflower.
  • Place the fried papad in the center. Crush it lightly.
  • Next, grate cheese lavishly over the papad.
  • Sprinkle coriander leaves.
  • Serve hot with tomato ketchup, chutney, and curd.
  • Make the other paratha in a similar manner.
