Keema Stuffed Paratha Recipe | Easy Mutton, Chicken or Soya Keema Paratha

Keema Stuffed Paratha is a wholesome and flavorful Indian flatbread filled with a spicy minced meat mixture. Traditionally prepared with mutton keema, this recipe also works wonderfully with chicken keema. 

For vegetarians, cooked and mashed soya granules make an excellent substitute, providing a similar texture and rich taste. These stuffed parathas are perfect for breakfast, lunch boxes, or a comforting family meal.

Ingredients Required

For the Stuffing

• 100 grams steamed and blended keema (mutton or chicken)
• 2 tsp fried onions or crumbled fried onion
• 1 tsp garlic paste
• 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
• ½ tsp crushed jeera (cumin)
• 1 tsp chopped green chilli
• 1 tsp finely chopped curry leaves
• 1 tsp finely chopped mint leaves
• Salt, as required

For the Dough

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• A pinch of salt
• Water, as required

Other Ingredients

• Oil or ghee, as required

Method

Step 1: Prepare the Fried Onions

Heat 3 tsp oil in a pan. Add 2–3 finely sliced shallots and fry until golden brown and crisp.

Step 2: Make the Stuffing

In a bowl, combine the blended keema, fried onions, garlic paste, ginger-garlic paste, crushed jeera, green chilli, curry leaves, mint leaves, and salt. Mix well to form a flavorful stuffing.

Step 3: Prepare the Parathas

Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll each portion into a medium-sized circle.

Place about 1 tsp of stuffing in the center. Gather the edges and seal the dough, pinching off any excess dough. Gently flatten and roll into a paratha.

Step 4: Cook the Parathas

Heat a tawa or griddle. Cook the paratha on both sides, applying a little oil or ghee until golden brown spots appear and the paratha is cooked through.

Step 5: Serve

Serve hot with your favorite gravy, curry, yogurt, pickle, or chutney.
