Sattu Parathas are the special type of Indian bread from the land of Bihar. Powdered roasted chana sattu is spiced with pickle gravy and other spices. The sattu is stuffed into wheat dough, then rolled and cooked on tawa. I used Ragi instead of wheat.  

Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup Ragi flour
  • 1 Cup Water
  • 1/2 cup Sattu
  • 1 tbsp Any Pickle gravy with oil
  • 2 tbsp Finely Chopped Onion
  • 1 Finely Chopped Green Chilli
  • 2 tbsp Finely Chopped coriander Leaves
  • 1/4 tsp Ajwain/Omam
  • 1 tsp Grated Ginger
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 tsp Salt

Directions:

  1. Make soft dough as explained in Millet Roti recipe.
  2. Mix all the ingredients given under the heading 'stuffing'. Keep aside.
  3. Roll 2 rotis of same size.
  4. Spread 2 tbsp of the stuffing on one roti evenly.
  5. Close with another roti and seal the edges using some water.
  6. Cook the stuffed paratha on both sides using some oil.
  7. Delicious Ragi Sattu Paratha is ready!
  8. Baingan Bhartha and curd are the best accompaniments.

  1. I had heard of autoalysis dough and out of my sheer laziness I would boil the water the Make my dough with millet flour, but making it using the mentioned method makes a big difference!!

    I made roti with bajra flour and the stuffing was a delightful change ! It was amazing with curd! I roll them into thin roti as personal preference and no other changes has been made.

    Thanks a lot Vijaya for bringing this to us !

    Best wishes
