2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon asafoetida (hing)
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 cup boiled and mashed potatoes
1/4 cup chopped coriander leaves
Oil for cooking

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the wheat flour and salt. Add the oil and mix it thoroughly. Add 1/2 cup of lukewarm water and knead it into a soft dough. Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.

In a medium bowl, mix together the cumin seeds, asafoetida, turmeric, boiled and mashed potatoes, and chopped coriander leaves. Mix well and set aside.

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a small ball. Take one ball and roll it into a 3-inch diameter circle. Place 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture in the center of the circle. Fold the edges of the circle towards the center and seal the edges. Roll it into a 6-inch diameter paratha.

Heat a griddle or tawa over medium heat. Place the paratha on the hot griddle and cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip it over and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Apply a little oil or ghee on both sides and cook for another 1-2 minutes on each side until both sides are golden brown.

Serve the hot aloo paratha with yogurt, pickles, and chutneys.
