Paratha is among the most common flatbreads prepared across India. When paired with curries or stuffed with spiced fillings, it completes a meal. Here are some unique stuffings that give this traditional delight a modern twist.

Spinach & Paneer

In most restaurants, you will find paneer paratha. However, you can make it more nutritious by adding spinach to the mix and making it rich in iron.

Mint & Peas

Matar paratha is common in India but a unique twist will be if you blend peas with mint and prepare a spiced mixture for stuffing.

Mushroom & Garlic

Chop mushrooms and saute them with garlic and spices. Fill this mixture into a dough and roll it. This unique paratha will become your favourite.

Tofu & Sesame

If you are a vegan, stuff the paratha with a spiced mixture of tofu. Sprinkle sesame seeds on the top and press with your hands. You will enjoy the nutty flavour.

Cheese & Jalapeno

To make a cheese paratha spicy, stuff it with chopped jalapeno. This unique recipe will pair well with a yoghurt dip or raita.

Beetroot & Carrot

Beetroot and carrot is an amazing combination to make the paratha nutritious and healthy. Add a few fresh herbs to make the stuffing delicious.

Broccoli & Cheese

This is yet another way to make your children eat broccoli. Saute grated florets with powdered spices and while stuffing into a paratha, add grated cheese as well.
