🎃 Pumpkin (Kaddu) Stuffed Paratha | Soft, Healthy & So Delicious! 🫓✨
This Pumpkin Stuffed Paratha is soft, flavourful, and a great way to include more veggies in your meals. The best part? I don’t waste the pumpkin water—I use it to knead the dough, making the parathas even softer and more nutritious. 💛
📝 Ingredients
For the Dough:
* 1 cup whole wheat flour
* Water squeezed out from the grated pumpkin (use this to knead the dough)
* Salt to taste
For the Stuffing:
* 1 cup grated pumpkin (kaddu), squeezed after resting with salt
* 1 green chilli, finely chopped
* ½ tsp chaat masala
* ¼ tsp red chilli powder
* ¼ tsp ajwain
* 2 tbsp chopped coriander
* Salt to taste (adjust carefully)
For Cooking:
* Ghee or oil, as needed
👩🍳 Method:
1. Grate the pumpkin and mix it with a little salt. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
2. Transfer it to a muslin cloth and squeeze out all the excess water. Don’t throw away the water—use it to knead a soft dough with whole wheat flour.
3. In the squeezed pumpkin, add green chilli, chaat masala, red chilli powder, ajwain, chopped coriander, and salt if needed. Mix well.
4. Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll one portion slightly, place the stuffing in the centre, seal the edges, and gently roll into a paratha.
5. Cook on a hot tawa, applying ghee or oil on both sides until golden brown.
6. Serve hot with curd, pickle, or green chutney. 😋
