  • To make the filling heat oil in a non-stick pan, add garlic, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, salt, potatoes and pumpkin and mix well. Add coriander leaves and mix well.
  • Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into balls. Roll each ball into a round disc, place some potato mixture in the centre, gather the edges together and press lightly to seal.
  • Roll each stuffed ball into a parantha.
