Let's jump to the recipe,
Yield – 2 servings
Timing – 25 min
Prep time – 10 min
Total- 35 min
Ingredients:
Sattu/ Roasted gram flour or Roasted chickpeas flour – 1 cup, 250gm
Mustard oil – 1 tbsp
Ginger – 2 tsp, finely chopped
Garlic – 1 tsp, finely chopped
Green chili – 3-4 nos., chopped
Coriander leaves – handful chopped
Carom seeds – ½ tsp
Red chili powder – 1/3 tsp
Black pepper grounded – ½ tsp
Pickle – 1 tsp, masala
Salt to taste
Water – 2-3 tbsp
Method-
In a mixing bowl, bring all the ingredients together, and prepare a nice stuffing mixture. If the mixture is super dry, sprinkle some water and keep aside.
Bring another bowl and measure universal flour and knead into a soft dough. A nicely kneaded soft dough leads to softening Parathas. Cover it with lid and keep aside for minimum 10 minutes.
Make a lemon size ball from the dough and roll each ball a little in a diameter of 5-6 cm and 5 mm thickness. Place 2 tbsp of filling/stuffing in the middle of it, stick it from all sides and sprinkle some dry flour on the surface where you planned to roll it. With the help of rolling pin, again roll it about 10-12 cm diameter and 5 mm thickness.
Heat a griddle and place the paratha. Cook each side of paratha until it turns golden brown, add a few drops of Olive oil/ vegetable oil/ Ghee as per your choice while cooking. Repeat the process for the rest of parathas.
Now, the Sattu ka Paratha/ Litti is ready to be served. To pair it with curd/ yogurt/ pickle or Baingan ka bharta/ chokha.
Note- While rolling the parathas, give a light pressure with hands. And dough should be super soft, else its breakdown easily and stuff comes out. Store- It can be stored for up to 2-3 days in a refrigerator.
