Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free flour blend
• 1 cup Sattu (roasted gram flour)
• 1 cup Water
• 0.5 teaspoon Carom seeds (ajwain)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 Green chili, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves, finely chopped
• 1 Onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Oil for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add the gluten-free flour blend and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth and soft dough. Cover it with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 2

To prepare the sattu filling, combine sattu (roasted gram flour) with carom seeds, remaining 0.5 teaspoon salt, cumin seeds, green chili, grated ginger, coriander leaves, and chopped onion in a separate bowl. Mix well.

Step 3

Divide the dough into equal-sized balls, about the size of a golf ball. Similarly, divide the sattu filling into portions approximately half the size of the dough balls.

Step 4

Flatten a dough ball into a small disc using your hands. Place a portion of the sattu filling in the center and gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling to encase it completely. Seal well and flatten slightly to form a stuffed dough ball.

Step 5

Dust a clean work surface with some gluten-free flour and roll out each stuffed dough ball gently into a circle, about 6 inches in diameter. Be careful as the dough can be delicate.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Add a little oil and place the rolled paratha onto the skillet.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear, adding a bit of oil along the edges if needed. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

Step 8

Repeat the rolling and cooking with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 9

Serve the gluten-free sattu paratha hot with yogurt, pickle, or any side of your choice.
