Having an avocado tree has its own advantage. The copious fruit that my tree yields helps me innovate and make new recipes with avocado. This tasty avocado paratha is super easy to make and a good change from the regular parathas that we make. Serve it with curd or curry for a complete meal.
Here is my recipe of how to make avocado paratha:
Avocado Paratha
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 avocado pulp mashed
- 2 tbsp. dill chopped
- 1 tbsp. ginger-chilli paste
- 1 tsp. cumin powder
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- salt to taste
- 1 tbsp. oil
- water to knead flour
Instructions
- Mix together all the ingredients and form a smooth dough. You should not need much water. Keep aside for 15 minutes.
- Now roll out the dough into round shaped flatbread or paratha.
- Roast it on tawa or griddle using oil on both sides. Your avocado paratha is ready to eat. Serve it hot with pickle and curd.
Notes
- This paratha is soft and stays for a couple of days after cooked.
- You can also pack it in lunchbox as it tastes good at room temperature.
- This avocado paratha is very nutritious.
- Due to fats in avocado it is super soft too.
- You can skip dill and use cilantro leaves if you so prefer.

I have a question. I have never brought avocado. How to check if the avocado is good?

I have an avocado tree at home. The avocados I have ripen only when they turn black and yield when pressed. A good rule of thumb is to buy ripe ones that when pressed will gently yield when you wish to consume them in a day or two. Else you can buy an unripe one and keep it covered in a brown paper cover or with bananas and it will ripen in a few days.
