Garbanzo Stuffed Paratha
Stuffed parathas are the stuff of breakfast dreams for North Indians – Punjabis love the cauliflower and daikon stuffing, the Sindhis love the potato and lentil. The key is to cook parathas on a skillet low and long – low heat for a long time for the crust to get crispy and inside warm and gooey! These stuffed parathas can be cut into wedges and served as an appetizer.

Serves

Directions
Roti
Step 1
To make the roti dough, combine the roti flour with salt, black pepper and one tablespoon of olive oil.
Step 2
Add the water and knead to make a soft pliable dough. Add another tablespoon of olive oil to coat the dough.
Step 3
Leave the remaining oil aside to baste the parathas. Divide dough into two equal parts to make round balls.
Garbanzo Stuffing
Step 1
Mash the garbanzo beans until soft and combine them with the sweet potato, mint, minced onion, olive oil, and spices. Set aside.
Garbanzo Stuffed Paratha
Step 1
With a bit of dry flour and using a rolling pin, roll each roti ball into a 9 to 10-inch round. Place half the potato garbanzo mix on the middle of the paratha then roll edges over into concentric flaps to cover the entire mix.
Step 2
Now using little more dry flour, roll out the filled paratha putting gentle pressure until it is about 8-inches round.
Step 3
Warm up a wide skillet and cook the paratha in a dry skillet, on each side. After both sides have cooked a little, brush oil on each side and cook on low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until crisp and done. Repeat with the second paratha.
Notes & Variations
- Roasted and chopped or raw grated cauliflower also makes a delicious stuffing.
- Parathas can be made a few hours ahead of time and warmed in the oven before serving.
- Garbanzo beans can be replaced with other legumes or lentils.
