Ingredients
  

To make the paratha stuffing:

  • 500 grams mutton minced
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 tsp ginger finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp green chilies finely chopped
  • 1 piece onion medium size, very finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds crushed
  • 1 tsp black pepper crushed
  • 1 tsp chaat masala powder
  • ½ tsp red chili powder
  • 1 tbsp chili flakes or crushed red chilies
  • 1 tbsp coriander seeds crushed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup coriander leaves roughly chopped

To make the paratha dough:

  • 1 cup wheat flour atta
  • 2 cups refined wheat flour maida
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil

To fry the mutton parathas:

  • Cooking oil as required

Instructions
 

  • To make the paratha dough, take 1 cup of wheat flour (atta), 2 cups of refined wheat flour (maida), 1 tsp of salt, and 2 tbsp of cooking oil in a plate or a mixing bowl. Mix everything nicely first and then gradually add water as required to make a soft dough. Grease some oil on it, cover it and keep it aside for about 15 minutes to set properly.
  • While the dough sets, take 500 grams of mutton and mince it in a mixer.
  • Now, in a frying pan heat 2 tbsp of cooking oil on a medium flame. When the oil is hot, add 1 tsp of ginger and 1 tbsp of green chilies, both finely chopped, and sauté them for about half a minute and then add 1 piece onion (medium size, very finely chopped) to it and fry nicely for about a minute or so.
  • When the onions change color, add the minced mutton and fry it on a high flame for about 2 to 3 minutes till it changes its color. Then add 1 tbsp of ginger garlic paste, mix it nicely and fry for another 5 to 6 minutes on a high flame.
  • When the mixture dries up, add 1 tsp of salt and mix well.
  • Now, add ½ cup of water, mix and cover the pan to cook the mutton on low to medium flame for about 10 minutes. When it dries up again nicely, switch off the flame and let it cool down.
  • Now, make medium-sized dough balls.
  • The mutton stuffing should be cool by now. Add ½ cup of coriander leaves (roughly chopped) to it and mix well.
  • Now, take a dough ball and roll it to make a roti. Put some of the mutton stuffing on the roti.
  • Apply water on the edges. Fold it in a square shape.
  • Roll it further and place it carefully on a preheated tawa. Fry for about a minute on a high flame.
  • Flip it and apply 1 tbsp of cooking oil on it. Spread it nicely with a spoon, flip it and apply oil on the other side as well in the same way. Flip and fry the paratha on both sides, pressing it gently in the process. Fry all the parathas in the same way.
  • Your tasty and crispy homemade keema parathas are finally ready to serve. Arrange them on a plate and serve hot with green chutney.

Notes

You can make the paratha with only atta or only maida.
I have used cooking oil to make the paratha dough. You can use an equal quantity of ghee or clarified butter in its place.
There should not be any moisture in the mutton keema after cooking or else your parathas will be soft and soggy.
I have used cooking oil to fry the parathas but you can use butter or ghee if you want in its place.
