Soyachunk Paratha( সোয়াবিনের পরোটা)

 ### Soyachunk Paratha Recipe


#### Ingredients:


**For the Filling:**

- 1 cup soy chunks

- 1 onion, finely chopped

- 1-2 green chilies, finely chopped

- 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste

- 1 tsp cumin seeds

- 1 tsp garam masala

- 1 tsp coriander powder

- Salt, to taste

- 2 tbsp oil

- Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (optional)


**For the Dough:**

- 2 cups whole wheat flour

- Water, as needed

- Salt, to taste

- 1-2 tbsp oil (optional)


#### Instructions:


1. **Prepare Soy Chunks:**

   - Boil water in a pot and add soy chunks. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are soft. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop them finely.


2. **Make the Filling:**

   - Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.

   - Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.

   - Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Cook for another minute.

   - Add the chopped soy chunks, garam masala, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for 3-4 minutes. Stir in chopped coriander if using. Let it cool.


3. **Prepare the Dough:**

   - In a bowl, mix whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a soft dough. Optionally, add oil for a softer texture. Cover and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.


4. **Assemble the Parathas:**

   - Divide the dough into small balls. Take one ball and roll it out into a small circle.

   - Place a spoonful of the soy chunk filling in the center. Gather the edges and seal the filling inside.

   - Roll out gently into a circle, ensuring the filling doesn't spill out.


5. **Cook the Parathas:**

   - Heat a tava or skillet over medium heat. Place the rolled paratha on it.

   - Cook for 1-2 minutes until you see bubbles, then flip and apply oil or ghee on both sides. Cook until golden brown and crispy.

   - Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.


6. **Serve:**

   - Serve hot with yogurt, pickles, or your favorite chutney.


Enjoy your delicious soyachunk parathas!
