Grind mint leaves, coriander leaves, garlic, green chilies, salt, and cumin in a mixer to make a paste.
Transfer the paste to a mixing bowl and add thick curd. Mix well.
Grate the cucumber into the mixture, add black salt and mustard oil, and mix thoroughly. Set the raita aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, salt, and water to make a semi-soft dough.
Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Boil the soybeans for a minute, then squeeze out the water using your hands and grind them in a mixer jar.
Heat oil in a pan and add cumin, crushed coriander seeds, green chilies, ginger, onion, carrot, and soybeans. Sauté the mixture.
Add salt, coriander powder, turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, and dry mango powder. Mix well.
Mash in the boiled potato and add chopped coriander leaves. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.
Let the stuffing cool down and make small balls out of it.
Take the rested dough and divide it into portions. Roll out each portion slightly.
Place a stuffing ball in the center, seal the edges, and roll it out gently into a paratha.
Cook the paratha on a hot griddle, applying ghee on both sides until golden brown.
Serve the parathas hot with the prepared raita.
Ensure the dough is semi-soft to make rolling easier and prevent tearing.
Squeeze out all the water from the boiled soybeans to avoid a soggy stuffing.
Adjust the spice levels in the stuffing and raita according to your taste preferences.
Use fresh mint and coriander leaves for the best flavor in the raita.
Cook the parathas on medium heat to ensure they are evenly cooked and crispy.
Can I use store-bought yogurt for the raita?
Yes, you can use store-bought thick yogurt for the raita. Ensure it is fresh and not sour.
Can I skip mustard oil in the raita?
Yes, mustard oil is optional. You can skip it or replace it with olive oil for a milder flavor.
Can I use any other flour for the parathas?
You can use multigrain flour or all-purpose flour, but wheat flour is recommended for a healthier option.
How do I store leftover parathas?
Store leftover parathas in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat them on a griddle before serving.
Can I make the stuffing ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the stuffing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
