Potato-stuffed unleavened breads

Breakfast in the north of India wouldn’t be complete without a couple of aloo parathas to start the day. Many northerners eat the plainer variety minus the potato stuffing, simply called parathas. They can be stuffed with any kind of vegetable filling, such as cauliflower, carrots, peas, and even radishes. The parathas tend to be served with a dollop of home-made white butter (makhan). It’s worth practising a few times to get this recipe right before you serve them up for a special occasion. They can be made a few hours in advance and then reheated on a griddle.
