Step 1
Mix flour with 0.5 cup water and a pinch of salt until a soft dough forms. Knead for 1 minute.
Step 2
Combine sattu, diced onion, chopped green chili, and 0.25 cup water in a bowl until it holds together as a filling.
Step 3
Divide dough into 2 balls. Flatten one, add 2 tbsp sattu filling to the center, fold edges up and seal.
Step 4
Roll gently into a 7-inch round without flattening the filling. Repeat with the second ball.
Step 5
Heat 1.5 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high. Fry one paratha 2 minutes per side until golden and blistered.
Step 6
Repeat with remaining 1.5 tbsp oil and second paratha. Serve hot with pickle or yogurt.
