Recipe: Palak Paratha....Simple and Healthy !


Palak Paratha is an interesting options for those who don't like to have it in the form of sabzi in any meal( like me..:p)
I am always in search of some interesting recipes to make spinach worth eating. Here is one of such colorful paratha which I can have in any meal of the day.
Below is the recipe to make this paratha.

Palak Paratha
Serves 3 (makes 10 medium sized )
Takes 20 minutes


Ingredients:

 2 cup Wheat Flour
1/2 tsp oil
2 green chilies
4 garlic cloves
A handful of coriander, chopped
1 cup Spinach chopped
1 tsp  Ajwain/Carom seed
Water, for kneading
Tata salt lite, to taste
Ghee/oil to grease the pan.

Method:

Blend together all the ingredients spinach, coriander,garlic and chilies to make a paste.( Don't add water).
Add this paste to the wheat flour, add salt to taste, ajwain and oil to the mixture and knead together to make to a smooth dough.
Take a  medium sized ball from the dough, flatten & sprinkle some flour over it.
Roll to a size of a roti.
Heat the non-stick tawa and place the rolled paratha on the tava.
Flip  a couple of times to get the parathas browned and cooked well.
Usually well browned and crisp parathas are preferred, so we brown them more.




Taaddaa.... the parathas are ready. You can pair them up with any curry ( like I paired with aloo matar) of your liking or simply enjoy the with chutney.


Enjoy !!
