Aloo Paratha
Whatever paratha I make the first question I am asked is
“aloo paratha?”
“aloo paratha?”
Half the times I say no and the complaint to you never make
… blah blah is followed.
I make aloo paratha in 2 ways this is the simplest one. The only
job here is grating the boiled potatoes. Mashing them makes them sticky and at
times there are fine lumps which will make rolling out a bit difficult in this shortcut method that I generally follow,

Needless to say aloo paratha is filling and tasty.
Tastes best with pickle and curds!!
