Aloo Paratha Recipe
Potato-Filled Flat Bread
To make a dough, mix in a shallow, flat bowl or pan:
2 1/4 cups Indian whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
Add:
about 3/4 cup warm water (enough to make a bread-like dough)
Cover and set aside:
To make the stuffing, boil, peel, and mash:
3 large potatoes (about 3 cups)
Add:
3/4 cup onion, finely chopped
3 Tablespoons fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), finely chopped
1 1/2 Tablespoons cumin/coriander powder
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon garam masala
1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper powder, or to taste
Method I: To form the paratha, make 18 equal-sized balls of dough. Using all-purpose white flour as needed, roll out 2 of the balls into 5" rounds until about 1/4 inch thick. Place about 2-3 Tablespoons of the filling on one round, and cover with the other. Press gently around the eges, then carefully roll out the paratha until about 1/4" thick and 6 1/2" wide altogether.
Method II: You can also form the paratha by dividing the dough into 9 equal parts. Roll out each part until about 10" wide and 1/4" thick. Place about 1/4 cup of the filling in the center, and gather the dough circle up around the filling, drawing the dough up to a sealed point at the top. Fold over the point and flatten the dough into a thick patty. Roll out carefully until about 1/4 inch thick and 6 1/2" wide.
To sauté the paratha, preheat a frying pan on medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil for the first paratha only. Put in one paratha and paint the top surface with about 1/4 teaspoon oil. Flip and paint the second side. Continue to flip the paratha frequently, pressing with a spatula on any unbrowned areas until browned all over on both sides. Remove from the pan and repeat with the other parathas until all are cooked. Serve topped with ghee or plain yogurt.

Bhindi masala
1 kg fresh okra (bhindi)
2 medium onions, finely cut
1 large tomato, cut into pieces
1 teaspoon ginger paste
2 teaspoons coriander powder
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
3 teaspoons red chili powder
1 teaspoon jeera seeds
coriander leaves, washed & finely cut
3 tablespoons oil
salt
Clean the bhindi with a moist cloth.
Cut bhindi in about 1" pieces.
Make a slit in each of the pieces so the masala gets applied.
Heat oil in kadai, add jeera seeds.
Then add the cut onion and fry for some time till they become golden brown.
Then add the tomato pieces and let them cook.
Add ginger paste and coriander powder and fry for a minute.
Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, mix it.
This should become homogeneous mixture which leaves out the oil.
Add the okra pieces to the mixture and apply the masala properly and let it cook on medium flame while stirring in between so that it does not stick to the kadai.
This may take 10 minutes.
Add salt and garnish with coriander leaves.
