How to make Avocado Flatbread or Avocado Paratha or Aoocado Chapati
To prepare Avocado flatbread, make sure the avocados are ripe. I have not added any water while making the dough as the oil in the avocados where sufficient to form the dough.
Avocado Flatbread is prepared using whole wheat flour, few spices. You can even use all purpose flour or 1:1 ratio of all purpose flour (maida) and wheat flour (atta). The taste and texture may vary accordingly.
This bread recipe is super simple. To this recipe, I have added only garam masla and cilantro. You can add spices like cumin powder, coriander powder, garlic powder if you want it masaledar. Also feel free to add fresh ginger or green chilies (jalapeno or serrano).

We took the time to make this recipe, since we all love avocado. It was excellent! We used it instead of chips for nachos... This will be making it on the rotation often.
Thanks!
