Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Brown ground lamb in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it apart with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~4 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add onion, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, salt, and pepper. Stir constantly until fragrant and onion softens, ~2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Mix flour with water (about 0.5 cup) in a bowl until a soft dough forms. Knead briefly until smooth, ~1 minute.

  4. Step 4

    Divide dough into 2 balls. Roll one thin on a floured surface, spoon half the lamb filling into the center, then fold and seal edges.

  5. Step 5

    Pan-fry the filled paratha in the same skillet over medium heat until golden and crispy on both sides, ~3 minutes per side.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot alongside yogurt and pickle on the side.
