Sattu Paratha

Before the recipe a few notes and tips:

  • This is a Bihari dish and the sattu used here is roasted gram flour. 
  • The ingredient list may look a little too long but it contains of some very simple and everyday stuff that we always have at home. 
  • When preparing the filling, add water one tablespoon at a time. Too much water may make it sticky and difficult to handle. When you hold the mix in your fist it should retain the shape. 
  • Too dry a mix can cause the filling to break out of the dough while rolling.
  • Keep the dough on a medium soft side. This helps hold the filling inside the dough when rolling.

For an authentic Bihari meal, serve parathas with baigan bharta. Can also serve with pudina chutney, curd and pickle.

So let’s get going.
