Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
• 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 medium-sized, peeled and boiled Potatoes
• 1-2 small, finely chopped Green chilies
• 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Cilantro
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili powder (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt (for filling)
• 0.25 cup Gluten-free flour (for rolling)
• 2-3 tablespoons Oil or ghee (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt.

Step 2

Gradually add warm water and 1 tablespoon olive oil while mixing, until a soft dough forms. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in another bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until smooth. Mix in green chilies, cilantro, ground cumin, coriander powder, turmeric, red chili powder (if using), and salt. Ensure the filling is well combined and smooth, then set aside.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each into a ball using lightly oiled hands.

Step 5

Lightly dust your work surface with gluten-free flour. Flatten one dough ball into a small round disc (approximately 4 inches in diameter). Place 1-2 tablespoons of potato filling in the center.

Step 6

Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling to enclose it fully. Lightly flatten the stuffed dough ball into a disc again, ensuring the filling is evenly distributed.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 8

Heat a nonstick skillet or tawa over medium heat and brush it lightly with oil or ghee.

Step 9

Place a rolled-out paratha onto the hot skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes on one side until lightly golden, then flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes. Brush each side with a bit of oil or ghee while cooking.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining parathas. Serve warm with yogurt, pickle, or your favorite accompaniment.
