fat
4 tbsp Ghee (For cooking the parathas)
1.5 tsp Coriander Powder
2 tsp Salt (0.5 tsp for dough, 1.5 tsp for marinade, or to taste)
1 tsp Red Chili Powder (Adjust to your spice preference)
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Garam Masala
0.5 tsp Turmeric Powder
1.5 cup Water (Approx. 1 cup for dough, 0.5 cup for cooking mutton)
2 tbsp Coriander Leaves (Freshly chopped, for garnish)
1 tsp Chaat Masala (For assembly)
1 piece Lemon (Cut into wedges, for serving)
Instructions
1
Marinate the Mutton
In a large bowl, combine the mutton pieces, whisked curd, ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, and 1.5 tsp of salt.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the mutton is evenly coated with the marinade.
Cover the bowl and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or for best results, refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
2
Prepare the Paratha Dough
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the atta, maida, 0.5 tsp of salt, and 1 tbsp of vegetable oil.
Gradually add approximately 1 cup of water, kneading continuously for 8-10 minutes to form a soft, smooth, and pliable dough.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes.
3
Cook the Mutton Filling
Heat 3 tbsp of vegetable oil in a pressure cooker over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until it turns golden brown.
Add the chopped tomato and cook for another 4-5 minutes until it becomes soft and pulpy.
Add the marinated mutton and slit green chilies. Increase the heat to high and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton is well-browned and the oil starts to separate.
Pour in 1/2 cup of water, stir well, and secure the lid of the pressure cooker.
Cook on medium heat for 5-6 whistles (approximately 20-25 minutes) until the mutton is tender.
Allow the pressure to release naturally. Open the lid and, if there is excess liquid, cook on high heat, stirring until the masala thickly coats the mutton pieces.
Stir in the chopped coriander leaves and set the filling aside.

Make the Parathas
Divide the rested dough into 4 equal portions and roll them into smooth balls.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll each ball into a thin circle, about 6-7 inches in diameter.
Heat a tawa (flat pan) over medium-high heat. Place a rolled paratha on the hot tawa.
Cook for about 30 seconds until small bubbles appear, then flip. Drizzle 1 tsp of ghee over and around the paratha.
Press gently with a spatula and cook for 30-40 seconds until golden brown spots appear. Flip, apply another tsp of ghee, and cook the other side similarly.
Repeat for all dough balls, stacking the cooked parathas in a casserole dish to keep them warm and soft.
5
Assemble and Serve
Place a warm paratha on a clean surface.
Spoon a generous amount of the mutton filling in a line down the center.
Top with a handful of thinly sliced onions.
Drizzle with green chutney, sprinkle with chaat masala, and squeeze a wedge of lemon over the filling.
Tightly roll the paratha from one side to the other. You can wrap the bottom half in parchment paper or foil for easier handling.
Serve the mutton rolls immediately while they are hot and fresh.
