Ingredients

  • Whole wheat flour - 1 cup
  • Water - 1/3 cup
  • Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Oil - 1 tablespoon (for dough)
  • Mixed bell peppers (diced) - 1/2 cup
  • Onion (sliced) - 1 medium
  • Carrot (julienned) - 1 small
  • Cabbage (shredded) - 1/2 cup
  • Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
  • Ginger (grated) - 1 teaspoon
  • Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Coriander powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Red chili powder - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Cilantro (chopped) - 2 tablespoons
  • Oil - 2 tablespoons (for cooking vegetables)
  • Green chutney - for serving (optional)

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, salt, and 1 tablespoon of oil. Gradually add water while kneading until a soft dough forms. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  2. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant.
  3. Add sliced onions to the skillet and cook until translucent. Then add diced bell peppers, julienned carrot, and shredded cabbage. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender yet crisp.
  4. Sprinkle cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt to taste over the vegetables. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon juice and chopped cilantro.
  5. Divide the rested dough into 2 equal balls. Roll each ball into a thin circle (about 8 inches in diameter).
  6. Heat a tawa or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each paratha for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly puffed, brushing with a little oil if desired.
  7. To assemble, place a paratha on a plate, add a portion of the vegetable mixture in the center, and roll it up tightly. Repeat with the second paratha.
  8. Serve warm with green chutney on the side.
