Aloo Paratha Recipe: Potato-Stuffed Indian Flatbread

Last Updated: October 20, 2021 · India, Nepalese Cuisine, Recipes

I have never eaten paratha before.  Well, until last week that is.  I’ve often seen it in the frozen section in the local Bhatbhateni store but never thought to give it a try.  Then one sunny day at work for lunch we were served fresh, handmade potato parathas.

Then I searched and searched and couldn’t find the recipe until I looked in my little Nepalese cookbook.  Lo and behold… alu/aloo paratha!

Aloo Paratha Recipe

Paratha is originally from India but is eaten here in Nepal as well.  You can have plain paratha, or have it stuffed with ingredients like potatoes, onions, and more.

After having hot ‘n fresh paratha straight from the griddle, the frozen pre-made ones don’t really do them justice.  So try this handmade, easy recipe for cooking (potato) paratha below!

Ingredients

Serves 2-3 | Preparation time 20-25 minutes | Cooking time 10-15 minutes

  • Boiled potatoes               200 grams
  • Chopped onions              3 tbsp
  • Green coriander              2 tbsp
  • Butter                                 1 tbsp
  • Ginger/garlic paste         1 tbsp
  • Cumin powder                 1/2 tsp
  • Red chili powder             as required
  • Wheat flour (ata)            as required
  • Garam masala                  to taste
  • Salt                                      to taste

That’s it! Now let’s see what we need to do in order to cook this delicious potato flatbread.

Directions: What to do

Follow these ten easy steps in order to make a hearty potato-stuffed tasty flatbread.

  1. Peel the boiled potatoes and grate them into a large bowl
  2. Mix the grated potatoes with the above ingredients in one container (chopped onion, coriander leaves, ginger/garlic paste, cumin powder, red chili powder, garam masala, salt)
  3. Now you’ll need to make your dough with the wheat flour (wheat flour + water)
  4. Roll out your kneaded dough in a circle on a flour-dusted board (preferably wood/bamboo)
  5. Place above mixture into the center of the rolled out dough
  6. Bring all the edges together in the middle
  7. Roll out the dough evenly into a circular disc once more
  8. Add butter to medium-heated pan and place round aloo paratha
  9. Cook on both sides, flipping often
  10. Bon appétit!

Hope you enjoyed this yummy recipe.  Feel free to send your photos or let me know how the recipe turned out in the comment section below!

I have not tried onion paratha yet, but I bet it’s just as good.  Perhaps next time I’ll make a mixture of both? 😉 If you have any other recipes similar to this one, send it my way! I’d love to hear similar recipes to paratha as it’s so good, simple to make, and fulfilling!

Speaking of all this food makes my tummy rumble! Tonight on Bri’s dinner plate will be a mixture of grilled paneer, cabbage, and cauliflower with turmeric powder, veggie masala, and cream, with a little bit of salt and paprika to taste!

Eating as a solo female traveler in Japan 🇯🇵 Eating as a solo female traveler in Japan 🇯🇵 >>

I used to loathe eating alone in public but Japan literally is where you go to do just that! 🍜🍡🍣

My confidence level after walking into this bar and taking up space with no fear 🥲❤️‍🔥

Have you ever felt intimidated to eat alone in public or alone as a woman? 🙈 

S/o to all the courteous men and women who made me feel so welcome as a solo female traveler in Japan. No matter whether I was eating at 9pm in some random place on a rainy night or midday in a stand-up bar drinking beer, I was never judged nor “talked up” once. And it was amazing and freeing and sooo appreciated 🤍⚡️

And... WE’RE LIVE!! 🚀 I’m stoked (read 90 And... WE’RE LIVE!! 🚀 

I’m stoked (read 90% nervous, 10% excited), to share that @slomadstories is officially OUT THERE! 

I actually had the first episode published on April 4th, but was too shy to share about it until now. 

But, as you’ll hear when you tune in... (🥳) this podcast isn’t just about highlighting raw, meaningful stories of adventure by ordinary people who seek an extraordinary life — YES, it’s mostly about that — but the very heart of this podcast is about DOING things despite how much they SCARE you or thrust you into the UNKNOWN.

I’ve always *tried* to live my one very short life by seeking to know, chasing curiosity, and jumping headfirst into the journey. 

— This podcast is simply a new endeavor, a new project that WILL NOT stop whispering at my heart. I’ve been trying to deny this urge, this tug, for so long! The whispers started in 2020 when a person who I thought would become a close friend bailed on the idea to start one together. So I let the idea go, for a while. But then it came back twice as strong in 2022, when I was living as a temporary nomad in Portugal for two months. It was there that I had my podcast cover art designed. That was already 1.5 years ago! 

Life passes us by...

We hear the whispers, we see the project coming to life in our heads, we feel the pull...

But we say no over and over again, and we make very legitimate excuses, until ultimately, the idea, the spark, the magic, fades; it chooses someone else to birth the idea and manifest itself into creation (something I learned reading “Big Magic” by Liz Gilbert, it’s amazing, go read it!). 

I have no idea why I felt the need to start a podcast, it’s not like I am already juggling enough.

But I wanted to, for me.

For you ✨ 

For everyone who ever chased that feeling, that tug. 

Because that?? 

That’s been my life for the last decade. I moved abroad countless times — and stayed — from Nepal to Mexico and beyond, and I would’ve never done ANY of it if I had not listened to the whispers.

This podcast is about continuing in the pursuit of the unknown, seeking more, and taking decisive action.

Welcome to Slomad Stories, & thank you for being here. 🧡

Xx,
Bri
