Green Peas Paratha

Ingredients :

Wheat flour - 1 cup (To make paratha)
Fresh Green Peas - 1 cup
Chopped onions - 1/4 cup
Chopped green chili - 2 table spoons
Chopped Coriander leaves - 2 table spoons
Dhaniya / Coriander powder - 1 tea spoon
Aam choor / dry mango powder - 1/2 tea spoon 
Lemon juice - 1 tea spoon (optional)
Salt - 1 tea spoon
Oil / Butter / Ghee - To fry the paratha

Preparation :

- Add the water, oil & salt to the wheat flour and knead the dough for paratha and keep it aside.



- Boil the green peas & strain out all the water.
- Make sure green peas is not too wet …other wise paratha filling will not be proper.
- Mash the boiled green peas.



- Add the chopped onions, green chili, salt, dhaniya powder, coriander leaves & aam choor or dry mango powder to the mashed green peas & mix well.

Note : You can use either lemon juice or aam choor, I used aam choor powder. Also, you can use red chili powder instead of chopped green chili.

& Make sure you finely chop the onion , green chili & coriander so that filling won't come out of the paratha.

If the paratha filing is little water, just add 1 table spoon besan powder / gram flour.


- Now take handful of dough and flat roll the paratha. Don't roll like a chapati, let the paratha be thicker.


- Now take a lemon sized quantity of green peas filling & place it in the center of the rolled paratha.
- Slowly start folding the edges of the paratha & make it like a ball.
- Now, slowly & gently start flat rolling the paratha.


- Fry the green peas paratha on the pan ( Tawa ) with oil or ghee or butter like regular paratha.

Once Green peas paratha is ready, have it with any achar / pickle of your choice along with dahi / yogurt on the side !
