Paratha Enchiladas with Mole Sauce combine Indian dough technique with Mexican sauce craft. Soft parathas made using Aashirvaad 100% MP Sharbati Atta stay flexible and absorb more without tearing, and bake evenly. The mole balances dried chillies, nuts, spice, and dark chocolate for depth that builds slowly with every bite.
Start by mixing Aashirvaad 100% MP Sharbati Atta with salt and oil in a wide bowl. Add water slowly while bringing everything together, then knead until the dough turns smooth, soft, and evenly hydrated with no dry patches. MP Sharbati wheat absorbs water uniformly, which creates natural elasticity without making the dough sticky. Cover the dough and let it rest so the gluten relaxes and the wheat aroma develops fully.

Paratha Cooking
Once rested, divide the dough into equal portions and roll them into medium-thick discs. Cook each paratha on a hot tawa using a light coating of oil, turning until pale golden spots appear on both sides. The goal is to cook them through without crisping, as flexibility is essential for rolling later. Stack the cooked parathas and keep them covered so trapped steam preserves softness.

Filling Base
Heat oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onion until it turns translucent and sweet. Add garlic and red bell pepper, cooking until their moisture evaporates and the mixture softens. Stir in cooked kidney beans, sweet corn, cumin powder, smoked paprika, and salt, mixing well so the spices coat evenly. Cook until the filling holds together without becoming dry, then remove from heat.

Mole Foundation
Lightly toast the ancho and guajillo chillies until fragrant, then soak them in hot water until they soften and become pliable. In a separate pan, sauté onion and garlic in oil until lightly golden, then add tomato, almonds, raisins, sesame seeds, cinnamon, and cloves, cooking until aromatic. Blend this mixture with the soaked chillies and vegetable stock into a smooth paste. Return it to the pan and simmer gently, stirring often, before melting in dark chocolate to build depth, sheen, and complexity.

Assembly
Spread a thin, even layer of mole sauce across the base of a baking dish to prevent sticking. Place the prepared filling along the centre of each paratha, roll it snugly, and arrange it seam-side down in the dish. Pour the remaining mole sauce over the rolls, ensuring full coverage, so the parathas absorb flavour evenly. Finish by sprinkling grated cheese over the top.

Baking
Bake the assembled enchiladas at 180°C until the cheese melts completely and the sauce thickens around the edges. During baking, the parathas soak up the mole while maintaining structure, thanks to the strength and softness of MP Sharbati wheat. Remove from the oven as soon as bubbling begins to avoid over-drying and preserve tenderness.
