I loved all of them, it was just delicious when had with raita or yogurt. So the other day, while thinking of making parathas, I felt like stuffing the parathas with my favorite chick peas. Since, I use canned cooed chick peas, making the chick peas stuffing was very easy. Made the chick peas masala and stuffed it into the paratha dough, rolled it and cooked it. It was delish, had some leftover chick peas masala which was turned into cutlets, now that was\u00a0yummy.<\/p>\n<p>For more stuffed Paratha recipes, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/tag\/paratha\/\" target=\"_blank\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18981\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha.jpg\" alt=\"chana dal stuffed paratha\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparation Pictures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Chick peas stuffing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18984\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/cooked-chana-dal.jpg\" alt=\"cooked chana dal\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/cooked-chana-dal.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/cooked-chana-dal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/cooked-chana-dal-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stuffing into the dough<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18986\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/stuffing-chana-dal-in-paratha.jpg\" alt=\"stuffing chana dal in paratha\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/stuffing-chana-dal-in-paratha.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/stuffing-chana-dal-in-paratha-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/stuffing-chana-dal-in-paratha-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rolled stuffed dough<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18982\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha1.jpg\" alt=\"chana dal-stuffed paratha\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha1.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha1-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"#rating#\">\t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/chana-dal-stuffed-paratha2.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Chick Peas Stuffed Paratha- Chick Peas Paratha<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\"><span class=\"xlate\">Recipe Type<\/span>: <span class=\"type\">Main<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cuisine: <span class=\"cuisine\">Indian<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Thasneen<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Prep time: <time itemprop=\"prepTime\" datetime=\"PT10M\">10 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cook time: <time itemprop=\"cookTime\" datetime=\"PT45M\">45 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Total time: <time itemprop=\"totalTime\" datetime=\"PT55M\">55 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Serves: <span class=\"yield\">Makes 7<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ERSeparator\">[b]For making Paratha[\/b]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Wheat flour or Atta- 2 cups<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Warm water- 3\/4 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Salt- a few pinches<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Oil- 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ERSeparator\">[b]For making chick peas stuffing[\/b]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Chick peas, cooked canned- 1 can, drained<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Oil- 1 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Cumin seeds- 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Onion, chopped- 2, medium sized<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Carrot, shredded- 2<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Water- 1\/4 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Chili powder- 1 to 1 1\/2 tsp (based on your spice needs)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Coriander powder &#8211;
