Recipe
1
Knead the whole wheat flour with a pinch of salt and water into a smooth, pliable dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.
2
In a mixing bowl, combine the sattu, chopped onions, green chilies, ginger, coriander leaves, ajwain, mustard oil, lemon juice, salt, and a splash of water to make a crumbly yet binding mixture.
3
Divide the dough and the sattu filling into equal portions of lemon-sized balls.
4
Roll out a dough ball slightly, place a portion of the sattu filling in the center, bring the edges together, and seal it securely.
5
Gently roll out the stuffed ball into a neat, thick paratha using dry flour for dusting.
6
Heat a tawa (griddle) over medium-high heat and place the rolled paratha on it.
7
Cook for a minute, flip, and apply ghee generously on both sides while pressing gently until golden brown spots appear.
8
Serve hot with a side of spicy potato curry and green chutney.
