pepper |
red chili powder |
1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped |

1. Sieve flour and salt in a large bowl.
2. Add water, a little at a time, and knead well to make a dough.
3. Cover.
4. Keep aside for 30 minutes.
5. Now mix all the ingredients listed under carrot and cheese filling in a bowl.
6. Divide the dough into 8 balls.
7. Roll each ball into a paratha.
8. Place spoonfuls of the carrot-cheese filling on each paratha.
9. Bring together the edges of the paratha and seal completely.
10. Roll out the parathas, one at a time.
