Ingredients

  • 2 nos Avocados Medium size
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp garlic paste or minced garlic cloves
  • 2 nos Green chili chopped
  • 2 tbsp Cilantro chopped
  • 2 cups Whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp Cumin powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 3 tbsp olive oil for kneading and cooking
  • Whole wheat flour additional for dusting

Instructions

  • Slice through the avocado length wise, with a knife, until you feel the pit in it's center.
  • Remove the pit. Scoop out and slice. Keep it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients, 1 tbsp oil and sliced avocados. Knead together to form a soft dough. (Water is generally not required as the fruit moisture is enough. But if required, add water)
  • Alternatively, a food processor with kneading blade can also be used. In this case, add cilantro and green chillies in the final spin.
  • Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, divide the dough into 10 - 12 equal balls.
  • Heat a griddle/ skillet/ tawa on a medium flame.
  • Take one dough ball and roll out into flat paratha using a rolling pin. Use flour to dust if required.
  • Once rolled, place it on a hot tawa and cook on both sides (by flipping). Brush oil.
  • Repeat the same steps for the remaining dough balls.
  • Enjoy these parathas with pickle, Dahi Ki Chutney, curry or dal (lentils).

Notes

Alternatively, chopped Onions and Tomatoes can be added to the dough. This would be a 'Guacamole' Paratha!
