steps: to begin making the tofu methi paratha recipe, we will first make the dough for the parathas. in a large bowl add whole wheat flour and some salt. add water a little at a time and knead to make soft, pliable dough. knead dough for a couple of minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. use the fold press and knead motion to make the dough smooth. next we will add a teaspoon of oil to coat the dough and knead little more. you want a dough that will be soft smooth and not sticky. next we will divide the dough into 6 equal portions and keep aside. while the dough is resting, lets prepare the filling for the parathas. in a large bowl; add tofu, onion, chopped methi leaves, green chillies, cumin powder, and salt. combine all the ingredients well. divide the filling into 6 equal portions. take a paratha dough portion dust it in flour and flatten it on the rolling board by pressing it down. roll the dough out into approximately 3 inch diameter circles dusting with flour in between to prevent the dough from sticking to the surface. place this rolled dough to the side. now place a portion of the filling onto the circle and spread it evenly around. next, take the other rolled portion of the dough and place it over the filling. press and fold the edges so that the filling does not come out while cooking the paratha. once sealed press down the with your palms to release any air pockets. and give it a gentle roll with the pin to even it out. proceed the same way with the remaining paratha dough and filling portions. preheat a skillet on medium heat and place the filled dough. allow it to cook on medium heat for about 30 to 45 seconds and flip over. add this stage add a teaspoon of ghee or oil and spread it around the paratha. flip again, so the other side of the paratha can cook on the skillet. spread a little more ghee and keep pressing while on the skillet to cook the paratha evenly from inside out. do the flipping over process a couple of times until both sides get cooked, browned and crisp evenly. plate and serve.
