Amarnath Flour Paratha | Vrat Ka Paratha | Falahari Paratha

Amarnath flour paratha(Rajgira paratha) is commonly used during Navratri fasting days in most Indian Kitchen. Prepared using Amarnath flour & mashed potato this is very simple & easy to make farali food.

This is a gluten-free and vegan flatbread. You can make recipes like rajgira french fries, farali kothimbir vadi & Rajgira vegetable paratha.

There are two ways to make Amarnath flour paratha. You can add vegetables like carrot, pumpkin, or bottle gourd (Allowed in fast (upvas)) and then make paratha.

Just add boiled mashed potato, knead, and then make. You can check vegetable rajgira paratha recipe which I already posted.

In addition to this kuttu ka paratha is also prepared in a similar way.

Adding boiled mashed potato while making a dough with the flour, helps to make paratha or flatbread.

Since this flour is gluten-free it is really tricky while rolling paratha. Due to its crumbly nature, you will not get smooth edges while rolling.

How to make Amarnath flour paratha

Let see how to make this Amarnath flour paratha, step by step.

1. First of all, boil the potato. Peel and mash. It is good to have smooth mashed potatoes without any chunks.
2. In a mixing bowl add Amarnath flour and salt. Add water gradually and bind everything together to make a dough. Rest for 10-15 minutes.
3. Heat a griddle on medium flame. And divide the dough into equal portions. I made 5 parathas with this.
4. Dust the rolling surface and gently roll. You do not have to put pressure. It is very crumbly and soft dough to handle. Just seal and keep rolling up to 5″ circle. Use parchment paper to roll paratha if on the rolling surface it is difficult.
5. Transfer it to a heated griddle. After a few seconds flip on another side.
6. Apply oil or ghee on both sides and cook until golden brown. Repeat the same with the rest of the dough ball.
7. Quick and fastest Amarnath flour paratha is ready to serve on your fasting day.

Serving suggestions

Serve this yummy stuffed amarnath flour paratha with potato raita, or carrot raita, vrat ki chutneys, or masala chaas, or lauki ka raita.

It goes very well with vrat ki sabji like vrat ke aloo, pumpkin sabji.

Storing suggestions

Amarnath paratha is best when serving fresh and hot. Keeping it for longer makes it dry.

You can always mix everything in the flour and make a soft dough. Store it in an airtight container for up to three days in the fridge.

1. Be careful while adding water. If too much water added the add some extra flour to make it a dough.
2. This flour dough is very soft in texture. Do not apply pressure. Just roll gently.
3. Use ghee instead of oil.
