How To Make Aloo Methi Tofu Parathas
The process is simple. It’s the same as any other methi paratha recipe but you’re doing more with the filling here. Here are the steps you’ll need to follow to prepare Aloo methi tofu parathas!
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Combine all the aforementioned ingredients – whole wheat flour, cooking oil and salt for the dough and knead them into a soft dough. Once the dough is kneaded, divide it into different portions and keep it aside (Depending on how many parathas you’re making)
Step 2: Prepare the Aloo Methi Stuffing
Heat some cooking oil in a non-stick frying pan and add cumin seeds. Once the seeds start crackling in the boiling oil, add methi leaves and sauté the leaves and cumin seeds on medium flame for around 2 minutes. Add some ginger-green chilli paste, turmeric powder, coriander powder, chaat masala and salt to the mix. Then sauté it again for a few seconds on a medium flame.
Now to add the main ingredients to the stuffing, add some potatoes, and tofu and mix them well with the rest of the sautéd ingredients. Cook the stuffing on a medium flame for two minutes. With the stuffing ready, roll it into balls (the same number of balls as you have portions of paratha dough.
Step 3: Merge the Dough with the Stuffing
Take the portions of dough you created and roll them into circles, just like you would regular chapatis. With each portion, roll out the stuffing from the center of the dough to make it spread out to the rest of the paratha. Just make sure it isn’t fully reaching the edges, or spilling. Seal the stuffing into the dough tightly. Using some whole wheat flour, roll out the parathas with the stuffing in the form of a circle again.
Step 4: Prepare the Parathas
Cook the parathas in a non-stick tawa using cooking oil for a few minutes until golden brown spots appear on both sides. Repeat this process with the rest of the parathas and stuffing you’ve prepared. The lunch box is ready for serving!
Step 5: Serving the Aloo Methi Tofu Parathas
How you want to serve the parathas depends on you. You can either spread some Nutralite Doodhshakti Probiotic Butter Spread on the outside of the parathas, or a tbsp of Nutralite Doodhshakti Pure Ghee. We recommend using Nutralite Doodhshakti Pure Ghee because it combines the goodness of probiotics with pure ghee, enriched with vitamin A.
