Instructions

Preparing the Dough

  • In a mixing bowl, take maida and wheat flour along with salt, baking soda, baking powder and mix everything well. We can sieve everything to make sure all ingredients are combined
  • Make a hole in the middle, add warm milk and curd and start mixing the flours. Knead the flours to make a soft and sticky dough
  • Add oil and knead well. Cover the dough with damp cloth and set aside for 2 hours

Preparing the filling : Aloo Matar Masala

  • Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and let it sputter. Add Green Chilies, Ginger and saute for a minute.
  • Then add chopped onions and saute the onions till translucent. Then add turmeric, Coriander powder, red chili powder, Salt and Amchoor powder and give a good mix. Let the masalas get cooked for a minute
  • Then add Green peas, potato and give everything a good mix. Finally garnish with coriander leaves. Yummy Aloo Matar Masala is all ready!

Preparing Naan

  • After 2 hours, take the dough and knead well. Make big lemon sized balls out of the dough.
  • Dust the dough with flour and roll it with a rolling pin to make thin roti.
  • Make lemon sized balls out of the masala and place one on the rolled roti. Bring the edges together and seal the filling.
  • Roll the filled dough ball again gently or spread it. On one side apply water and keep it ready
  • Heat a tawa and whne the tawa is hot, place the wet side of the rolled naan on the tawa facing down. Let the wet side gets cooked and when we notice bubbles, flip it and cook the naan on other side. Spread ghee on the top side of the naan and remove from tawa.
  • Repeat the same process of the rest of dough and filling.
  • Serve the hot yummy Aloo Matar Paratha with a generous amount of butter along with raitha and pickle and enjoy the scrumptious meal!

Notes

  1. We can use white wheat flour fully without using maida
  2. Instead of tawa, we can bake the naan in oven. Pre-heat the naan at 200° C. Place the naan in baking tray and cook for 10-12 mins, flipping it halfway and apply butter 
  3. We can add tomatoes to the masala. But tomatoes make the filling little watery. Thats why we are adding amchoor powder to give the little tanginess.
