Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup plain yogurt
  • 2 medium potatoes
  • 1 small onion
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix 2 cups flour, 0.5 cup yogurt, and 0.5 teaspoon salt. Add water gradually to form a soft dough. Knead for 5 minutes, cover, and rest for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Boil 2 medium potatoes until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, then peel and mash them in a bowl.

  3. 3

    To the mashed potatoes, add 1 small finely chopped onion, 0.25 cup chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon garam masala, and 0.5 teaspoon salt. Mix well and divide into 4 equal balls.

  4. 4

    Divide the rested dough into 4 balls. Roll each ball into a 4-inch circle. Place one potato ball in the center, gather the dough edges over it, and pinch to seal.

  5. 5

    On a floured surface, gently roll each stuffed ball into a 6-inch flatbread, being careful not to tear the dough.

  6. 6

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown spots appear and the bread puffs slightly. Brush with oil while cooking.

  7. 7

    Serve hot with yogurt or chutney.
