We\u2019ve partnered with Idaho-Eastern Oregon Spanish Sweet Onions<\/a> today to bring you this delicious recipe for Onion Stuffed Paratha which is excellent eaten on its own as a snack or for breakfast or makes a great side accompaniment to various dishes like curries for lunch\/dinner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parathas are somewhat thicker flatbreads that are often stuffed with various vegetables, although plain parathas<\/a> are also very popular. When it comes to stuffed rotis, the possibilities are endless but if you are running low on veggies then onions are a great way to add some beautiful flavours to plain parathas. <\/p>\n\n\n

I am not one to rave about onions all the time but Spanish Sweet Onions are the ones that I tend to keep as pantry staples as they offer a mild taste. Typically very large and globe-shaped, they are among the most versatile onions. They contain more sugar and less water than sweet onions and are ideal for caramelizing, saut\u00e9ing, and grilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If stored properly in a basket or mesh bag, these onions can last up to 4 weeks at home. It\u2019s important not to keep them in plastic, or with potatoes or other items that release moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n

Spanish Sweets are really large so I often use only part of an onion, then cube and freeze the rest, ready to have on hand for quick additions into other dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more sugar and less water content, I find these Spanish Sweet Onions to be the ideal variety to use in this stuffed paratha recipe. Their appealing sweetness complements these flatbreads rather than overwhelm them. As they contain less water, they don\u2019t make the rotis soggy either.<\/p>\n\n\n

Onion Stuffed Paratha<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Onion Stuffed Paratha is really an uncomplicated recipe yet very satisfying. It\u2019s an ideal recipe for batch cooking as these flatbreads freeze well and can be reheated whenever needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spanish Sweets release beautiful flavours when they are caramelized, so brown these onions with some spices before filling them into the flatbreads. Spices are versatile in this rendition and you can really just use your favourite spice combos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A handful of fresh coriander (cilantro) added at the last stage of cooking balances the acidity of onions, although Spanish Sweets tend to be a lot milder which is why I recommend them. If you don\u2019t like coriander, parsley is a good substitute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
