Aloo paratha is one of the most famous breakfast dishes in India. It was originated in Punjab and is very popular there.
Aloo paratha is an unleavened flatbread stuffed with spicy potato stuffing (mixture). The stuffing or masala is usually made with boiled mashed potatoes mixed with different spices and herbs.
These delicious and flavourful parathas are usually accompanied with curd (dahi), pickle (“aam ka achar“), tomato chutney or simply with butter (makhan) and a glass of lassi.
Aloo Paratha is a good tummy-filling dish and you can enjoy them at any time, in your breakfast, lunch or dinner. And you can also pack them in your kid’s lunch box or while travelling as well. These parathas taste yummy even after hours.
My recipe for making aloo paratha is a little different from the authentic Punjabi method. The authentic way to make stuffing is adding all the spices to the boiled mashed potatoes and mixing them nicely and there is no cooking of the masala/ stuffing.
But in my recipe, I will not just mix the boiled potatoes with the spices, but will also cook them. We will first prepare the stuffing and then we will make the parathas.
The whole step by step recipe with images at each step is discussed below.
So let’s check out the recipe!!!
