Preparation
Mash avocado well. Add lemon juice, salt needed and mix well.
Add grated onion, grated garlic, finely chopped green chilies, finely chopped coriander leaves and mix well.
Add whole wheat flour and mix well with the avocado mixture. No need to add water. Knead it into a soft pliable dough. If needed, you may add a tsp of oil, though not necessary. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes. (If you feel the dough is too soft, you may add a little more flour).
Divide the dough into equal parts. Flatten it and dust wheat flour.
Roll it out into a circle of 5 or 6 inches in diameter, dusting wheat flour. Repeat the same of the rest of the balls.
Method
Heat a tawa, place the rolled out dough on the tawa. When you find bubbles forming on the surface, press it gently with a kitchen towel or ladle and flip it over to the other side.
Cook the other side and remove from heat. Apply ghee (if preferred) and serve hot.
Pickle or thick curd or even tomato chutney will go well with this paratha.
