  1. To prepare Grated Beetroot Chilli Paratha Recipe, wash and peel the beetroot skin. Grate the vegetable finely.
  2. Take a mixing bowl and add the grated beetroot. Add cumin powder, salt, red chilli powder, and ghee. Mix all the ingredients except wheat flour.
  3. Add whole wheat flour into another mixing bowl and knead it to a smooth dough with enough water.
  4. Take a small portion of the wheat flour dough and flatten it using a rolling pin into a small circle big enough to hold the filling.
  5. Place 1-2 tablespoon of filling in the center. Bring the edges together with fingers and remove any excess dough after joining the ends.
  6. Using some dry flour to help it not be sticky to the rolling pin, roll the dough stuffed with filling using a rolling pin to get uniform & slightly thick paratha.
  7. Heat the Tawa to medium heat & add the paratha on the hot tawa.
  8. Roast it for about a minute & then flip and cook on the other side for a minute or till done.
