Steps

15 minutes

1

Add wheat flour and salt in a mixing bowl and knead a soft dough by adding water slowly. Keep aside for 15 minutes.
2

Wash chana dal thoroughly in running water. Put it in pressure cooker along with the water, salt and turmeric powder and pressure cook till 7-8 minutes after first whistle. Switch off the flame and let pressure releases automatically.
3

Open the lid and strain dal in a sieve. Let it remain in strainer for 15 minutes till all the water is sieved. Don't throw its water. I use this water for making healthy and nutritious soup.
4

Mix all the chopped onions, grated ginger, garlic green chilli and coriander leaves. Add all dry masale and mash it and prepare stuffing for paratha.
5

Now take a portion of dough and make a ball and roll it with the help of rolling pin. Keep a portion of stuffing on it and cover it from all sides by bringing its corners in centre. Shown in pic below.
6

Roll it again in round. Heat a griddle and place the rolled paratha over it and roast on medium flame for 1 minute. Flip the side and roast from other side also for 1 minute.
7

Now apply cooking oil on it and roast for 1 minute. Flip the side and fry from other side also till golden brown.
8

Serve hot with curd.
