Making cabbage laccha paratha

  • In a mixing bowl, add 2 cups of wheat flour, salt, and 1 tbsp of oil. Gradually add water and knead a soft dough.

  • Cover the dough with a moist cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  • In a blender, add 1 cup of roughly chopped cabbage, 1 green chili, 1 inch of ginger, 4-5 garlic cloves, and 1 small onion. Pulse grind until everything is crushed. Transfer the mixture into the mixing bowl.
  • In the same blender, add ¼ cup of poha and grind it into a fine powder. Set it aside.
  • For the stuffing, add 1 tsp red chili powder, 1 tsp coriander powder, 1 tsp amchur powder, ½ tsp garam masala, ground poha powder, and some coriander leaves. Mix well, but do not add salt at this point. Set the stuffing aside.
  • Divide the dough into two equal parts. Take one part and roll it into a larger-sized roti. Apply ghee on the rolled roti and fold it into a tight roll. Roll the log and stretch it. Cut the log into 1.5-inch pieces.
  • Take one of the cut pieces, flatten it gently with the help of your palm, and roll it into a medium-sized puri. Repeat with another dough ball.
  • Add salt to the stuffing and mix well. Place 2-3 tbsp of stuffing on a rolled puri, then place another rolled puri on top. Press the layers tightly together.
  • Gently roll the stuffed paratha into a medium size. Roast the paratha on a hot tawa using ghee until both sides have golden brown spots.
  • Once done, remove it from the tawa. Carefully crunch it slightly using your hands to separate the layers.

  • Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes until it becomes starchy and smooth. Allow it to rest for 15 minutes.

  • Poha powder absorbs water from the cabbage, resulting in a dry stuffing.
  • You can substitute 1-2 tbsp of roasted besan for poha powder.
  • Use ghee or butter to form layers in the paratha; do not substitute it with oil.
  • Gently roll the laccha paratha, avoiding any pressure during the rolling process.
