MasterChef Pankaj Bhadoudria’s Dal Parantha recipe
- Pour two tablespoons of olive oil into a pan.
- Once the oil is heated, add half a tablespoon of cumin seeds, one tablespoon of chopped garlic and five dried red chillies. Mix all the ingredients and sauté them.
- Once all the ingredients are sautéed well, add two cups of soaked chana dal.
- You can add salt in this according to your taste along with a half cup of water. Let the whole mixture cook well with a closed lid.
- Once the dal is cooked well, let it sit and cool down. Once the mixture is cooled well, grind it to form a coarse paste. Additionally, you can add a few tablespoons of chopped green chilli and mint leaves too.
- Take a small portion of the mixture and place it in the parantha that you have rolled out.
- Close the parantha to form a pocket holding the mixture in. Make sure that the mixture does not fall out or tear the parantha.
- Cook the parantha as usual. Pour some olive oil over the parantha while you are cooking it to enhance the taste even more.
- Now, serve you delicious parantha along with pickle and raita.
