Sattu Paratha with Curd

Bihar's original desi-protein breakfast: whole-wheat parathas stuffed with mustard-spiked roasted chana flour, at a fraction of the cost of whey. Carb-forward at 52g with moderate protein, it works best as morning fuel before an active day rather than as a cutting-phase pick.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/3 cup sattu (roasted chana flour)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 green chili, minced
• 1/4 tsp ajwain (carom seeds)
• 1 tsp mustard oil
• 150g curd, to serve

Instructions

1. Knead the wheat flour with water into a soft dough and rest it.
2. Mix sattu with onion, chili, ajwain, mustard oil, and a splash of water into a crumbly stuffing.
3. Stuff dough balls with the sattu mix and roll into parathas.
4. Cook on a hot tawa with a light brush of ghee until blistered on both sides.
5. Serve hot with the bowl of curd.
