  • Now, place a tbsp of filling in the center and bring together the edges.
  • Pinch and seal.
  • Flatten this ball and dust with flour.
  • Roll into thin circles. Do this gently to avoid tearing.
  • Once done, heat a tava.

  • Smear oil and flip and cook again till brown spots appear again.
  • Remove from flame and serve hot with yogurt and ghee.
  • Repeat with the remaining dough and filling to make the remaining parathas.

Notes

Sattu Paratha tastes best when the filling is made using mustard oil based pickles. Mango pickle oil works best here.
In case you dont have access to these pickles, add a tbsp of mustard oil in addition to the oil you are using.
