Aalu Paratha by Yash

Aloo Paratha

I love food, and I love to help my mother while she cooks something interesting like Desserts ,cakes etc.This time I tried making Alu parathas with Mummy’s help.Here’s how we made parathas…

First Mummy mixed some wheat flour with water to make a dough.The dough was very sticky, so Mummy mixed 2 tsp of oil. She then added salt, yellow powder(she told that it is called Turmeric powder)and some red chilly powder.Then I mixed it very nicely.It was soft now so I was able to roll it properly.

Mummy gave me a boiled potato.I peeled it and mashed it.It was such a fun. She then added salt,  coriander leaves, cumin seeds (I thought it was saunf..lol), green chillies and mixed it well. I then made a small ball of dough and a similar , small ball of potato mixture.Then rolled the dough to make parathas.Mummy cooked it on Tawa for me, and I enjoyed it with curd and papad..Yummmmy.

While I was rolling paratha, Mummy recorded a video of that.Papa helped to Edit it and upload it here.

Check the video and let me know if you liked it.

Bye…….

Sending this for Srivalli Aunt’s Event “Cooking with kids”…..isn’t cooking a fun?

  2. Hello Yash,

    You are going to be a big cook one day! I started off my cooking by rolling chapathi’s for my mom n grandmom…sitting just like you…on the floor. But the only difference was …I was just 3 yrs old then 🙂

    All the best!!

  5. Yash,
    You are such a wonderful little boy. You seem to roll paraths like an expert with your cute little hands.
    I admire you for helping your mom at this age. My wishes to you!
    I also liked the Dessert you & your Mom have made. Hope to see more of your creations.

  10. Thats the most wonderful thing a boy of that age can do 🙂 Indeed a Chef in making 🙂 I loved his instructions 🙂 He rolls it better than me 🙂

  11. Dear Yash,

    That was WOW. Seriously! Especially your 6-fold wrapping of the roti dough around the big ball of potato. Do you know TacoBell spends ages trying to teach their grown-up employees how to do that 6-fold wrap on their quesadillas (which are cheese parathas)?!!

    Here is one more recipe for you:

    make 2 thin rotis of paratha dough and half cook them dry, without any oil. Now put one back on the pan and spread it with grated cheese: cheddar is good, mix with Amul & mozzarella. You may also sprinkle finely chopped green onion on the cheese.

    Now put roti number 2 (#2) back on top of this cheese, and cook like a paratha. Add a tiny bit of ghee or olive oil all around & beneath the roti lying on the pan. When the heat starts melting the cheese, it will stick to roti#2. Now turn the whole thing around carefully and fry this side too until everything is gooey and the rotis are as crunchy or as soft as YOU like.

    This is your quesadilla!! Eat with a sliced avocado spread with lime juice, or tomato slices & cucumber. No salt will be needed on either paratha or avocado.

    We shall keep your video until Mother Dearest is searching for your wife. Then, everyone can enjoy your talent, and it will be proof to your beloved that her hubby-to-be can REALLY COOK!! I am sure not many girls will cook 20 years from now, so you will have first claim on the nicest persons!! Even better than Sachin’s wife!

    Much love,

    gautam.
