Paratha Roll Bites/Pinwheels With A Fusion Twist

My kiddos all time favorite is Aloo Paratha.I normally mix n match most of the grated vegetables and add to parathas and there it goes off in a jiffy.This time I wanted to make a snack recipe that fits in my little ones snack box.Thus arrived with this recipe which was an instant hit with my family.You can make this for an evening snack as well.There are many versions you can make with this recipe as you explore your creativity.

I love the idea of pinwheels which makes it bite size and easily snackable.Hence born this creation of mine.I have sauted the rolls in ghee in the final stage.I even had two other options in mind.One was to bake it and the other was to deep fry with a coat of corn flour. You can try any of these and enjoy this most delectable snack .You can use any left over parathas and make this as a quick snack.

Who doesn't love pizzas.To keep it healthy,I chose to use the pizza sauce as a spread on Aloo Paratha made of wholewheat and soya flour.The texture of Parathas were super soft.There comes another secret ingredient that we love as a family-Veg Mayonnaise. Normally we make Coleslaw Salad and serve  it up with brown bread toast and Voila ! The roll ups were amazing and the taste of pizza sauce with a Mayo twist made the taste buds craving for more.




Ingredients:

For the Aloo Paratha:

1. Whole wheat flour 1 cup
2. Soya flour 1/4 cup
3. Potatoes boiled and mashed  2 small 
4. Salt
5. Water to knead dough.
6. Butter 1 tsp

Rest the dough for min 1 hr so that you ll get the required softness

Ghee for toasting.

Fusion Twist Fillings:

1. Pizza Sauce base

  • Pizza Sauce spread - readymade or homemade
  • Mozarella Cheese grated
2. Mayonaisse Base(Almost like Coleslaw salad)
  • Veg Mayo  as required
  • Onions very finely chopped 1 small
  • Cabbage/Carrots very finely shredded
  • Tomato ketchup 1 tsp
  • Salt very little to taste
  • Chopped coriander leaves
  • Dash of pepper
Method:
  • Roll 2 Parathas and cut them into 2 big squares.Remove the extra dough and use for subsequent parathas.Cook the parathas with little ghee.
  • Spread the 2 fillings in each of the parathas like below,
  • Now place one square over the other and start rolling.Close the edges with a mixture of atta mixed with water and seal it tight.This ensures your filling doesn't ooze out.

  • Now cut into small roll bites and press it tightly and toast it with ghee on all four sides. 



-  Alternatively you can try to bake it after coating with milk/deep fry after coating in corn flour-water mix.

Serve it hot.Goes well as a starter or an evening snack.The blend of pizza sauce and mayo combination is truly a delight to your taste buds. 





Enjoy it hot !
