Pinwheel Aloo Paratha Recipe: How To Make Pinwheel Aloo Paratha
The process of making pinwheel aloo paratha is quite similar to the regular version. Start by preparing the dough for the paratha. For this, add atta to a large bowl and gradually add water to combine everything together. Knead to form a smooth dough and keep it aside. Now, prepare the aloo filling by mixing together boiled potatoes with onions, coriander leaves, green chillies, and masalas. Take a small portion of the dough and roll out a thin paratha. Instead of making it large, roll it out to create a mini version of paratha. Place the filling in the centre and encase it carefully. Roll it out again and cook on a pan set on a low-medium flame. Make sure to coat the pan with ghee before cooking the parathas. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade pinwheel aloo parathas!
