Pumpkin grated 1 cup Whole wheat flour 1 cup Chaat masala 1 tsp Red chili powder 1 tsp Cumin seeds | jeera 1 tsp Mint leaves a handful Salt little Oil| ghee to cook the parathas
Grate the pumpkin in a small grater and chop the mint leaves finely.
In a wide bowl add the flour, chaat masala and cumin seeds. In a pan add 1 tsp of oil and add the grated pumpkin, red chili powder, salt, mint leaves and cook for 3-4 minutes, Ensure not to get this burnt. As chaat masala has salt in it, you can add little salt to the pumpkin mixture. Switch off the flame.
Add the cooked mixture to the flour.
Mix well and sprinkle little water to this and knead this into a soft pliable dough. If the dough is sticky add 2-3 tblsp more flour.
Make this into 5 equal sized balls. I wanted the parathas to be medium small and thick. So i made the balls into mini orange size. Even you can make this into rotis too. Apply dry flour on the rolling board , keep one dough ball onto this.
Roll this into a thick paratha. Heat a tawa and put the paratha on the tawa.
Cook on both sides and apply ghee | butter or oil on the top of the cooked pumpkin paratha.
Serve hot with any pickle or simple yogurt.
