100% whole wheat flatbread made with avocados. These avocado paratha are great for breakfast! There’s so much we can do with Avocados – make dips, use them in pizzas, salads, sandwiches, pastas etc. I make the avocado sandwich quite often for breakfast and will definitely share the recipe on my blog soon. It’s super easy to make, very filling and also very tasty. It is or let’s say it was my favorite way to eat avocados, I say “was” because today I found the best way to eat this fruit in a very Indian way – Avocado Paratha!

Ingredients

1 avocado big [pulp comes to around ½ cup]
1 cup whole wheat flour some more for dusting
1 teaspoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon cumin powder
¼ tsp red chili powder or to taste
¼ teaspoon carom seeds also known as ajwain seeds
salt to taste
oil to cook the parathas

* Starting mixing the avocado mixture with the flour.

* Drizzle some oil on top to coat the dough ball. Cover and let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
