Today I am sharing a recipe that you might not have read or seen anywhere yet. I myself never did :) My mother in law tried this and shared her recipe. Everyone loved these parathas so I though of sharing it here.

Parathas are must with any Indian main course curry dish like palak paneer, paneer butter masala, aloo palak etc. We make varieties of parathas at home. The most common parathas are plain paratha, jeera paratha or stuffed paratha with common fillings like aloo paratha, mooli paratha etc. Stuffing can be made with lot of different ingredients. Paneer is also stuffed in paneer paratha which is loved by lot of people. Today I am sharing a different stuffed paratha recipe which you must try at home. I have used roasted papadum or papad (urad dal papad) as stuffing. You can make this parathas for children and also serve as breakfast too.

I have grated some cheese and the sev on top of the paratha for serving. That make these paratha really yummy. If you don’t like cheese then it is completely optional and can avoid it.

Tips to roll Stuffed Paratha

1. Dust the paratha with dry flour and then roll it. That way the stuffing will not get stick to base and paratha will roll nicely.
2. Always while making stuffed paratha knead the dough little soft but not too soft.
3. If you are adding vegetables in stuffed paratha, chop the veggies very small or else you cannot roll the paratha.
4. For this papad filling, crush the papad finely so that it don’t come out while rolling.
5. Always roll the paratha with the soft hand or else the filling will come out.

Alternate way to stuff the paratha

There is another easy way of filling the paratha with stuffing. You can roll two identical rotis. Place the filling in center of first roti and put another roti on top. Seal the sides properly using fork and roll it with soft hand so that the filling gets spread evenly on all sides.

Let us check the step by step recipe of stuffed paratha with onion tomato, papad filling with pics.

Recipe of Stuffed Paratha with Papad filling step by step with pictures

To make these delicious stuffed paratha with papad filling we will need following ingredients. Wheat flour (gehu ka aata), roasted urid dal papad, chopped tomatoes, chopped onions, green chilies and capsicum. Along with these main ingredients we will need oil and some indian spices. In the end we will garnish the parathas with grated cheese and sev.

The list of ingredients along with exact quantities are available in recipe box at the end of the post.

1. Making Dough for Stuffed Paratha

Let us begin by making dough for the stuffed paratha. For this we will take whole wheat flour (gehu atta) in a mixing bowl and add salt and oil. Now start adding little water at time and knead into smooth paratha dough. Make sure to knead for 5-10 minutes so that the dough become soft and smooth. Once done keep the paratha dough aside for 10 minutes to rest.

Our dough for stuffed paratha is ready. Next step is to make urad dal papad filling.

 2. Making Papad filling for Stuffed Paratha

Next let us make the papad filling for our stuffed paratha. For this take the roasted urid dal papad and crush into small pieces as shown here.

Add 1/2 tsp of red chili powder in papad.

Add salt according to the quantity of mixture.

Also pour a tsp of oil in the mixture.

Using a spoon mix well all ingredients and make papad stuffing.

Let us make another filling of tomato, onion and chilies. For this we will take finely chopped tomatoes, onions, green chilies and capsicum into a mixing bowl. Add a tsp of dry mango powder (amchur) and salt and mix well. The onion tomato mixture for stuffed paratha is ready.

Our stuffing is ready. Now let us roll the parathas.

3. Rolling the Parathas with Papad stuffing

Let us now stuff the filling in parathas and roll them. For that take a big ball of wheat dough as I have shown here. The size of the dough should be bigger then roti ball (lohi). Now roll the dough into disc roughly 5 inch in diameter. Place a tbsp full of onion tomato stuffing in center of rolled paratha. Also place 1 tbsp papad stuffing on top of onion tomato stuffing. Fold the edges as shown in the below image and seal the paratha carefully. Turn the paratha and press on top. Roll into 6 inch diameter parathas carefully without letting the filling fall out.

Repeat the step and roll the parathas until remaining stuffing is exhausted. Stuffed parathas are rolled and ready for roasting.

4. Roasting the Stuffed Paratha on Tawa

Now to roast the stuffed parathas let us heat the tawa / pan. Once the tawa is hot place the paratha and let it get light golden on one side.

Flip the paratha and apply some oil. Let it get roast again.

Similarly apply oil on both sides and roast till the stuffed paratha is golden brown in color.

Roast the parathas till they turn golden brown in color.

Stuffed paratha with papad filling is ready. Cut the parathas in quarters and sprinkle some sev and grate some cheese. Serve the parathas hot along with masala dahi, carrot raita, cucumber raita or coriander chutney. Even you can serve these parathas with jeera rice and punjabi dal tadka.
