stuffed paratha

Stuffed Indian bread

Stuffed paratha is an Indian flatbread filled with spiced ingredients before cooking.

The dough is wrapped around a filling—commonly spiced potatoes (aloo paratha), cauliflower, paneer, or minced meat—then rolled flat and pan-fried until golden.

Served with yogurt, pickle, or chutney, stuffed parathas are a substantial breakfast or meal across South Asia.
