Come winters and we actually indulge in the seasons best...the Greens! The local market is a wonderful sight to behold with fresh greens available in abundance! Mint | Pudina is a herb that we love in any form..be it just as a garnish, to the delectable Pudina Chutney, to the Minty Baby Alu Biryani, Pudina Buttermilk or just this awesome Pudina Paratha...its just delicious!

Paratha


Ingredients:
1 cup Whole wheat flour
1/2 cup Pudina | Mint, roughly chopped
1 tsp Fresh Dhania | Coriander, finely chopped
1/2 " Adrak | Ginger, finely chopped
2 Green Chillies, finely chopped
1/4 tsp Red Chilli Powder
1/4 tsp Jeera | Cumin Powder
1/2 tsp Saunf | Fennel Powder
1/2 tsp Haldi | Turmeric Powder
A pinch Hing | Asafoetida Powder
1 tsp White Til | Sesame, dry roasted
1/4 tsp Salt | to taste
1 tsp Oil

Method:
  • In a large mixing bowl add whole wheat flour, chopped pudina leaves, chopped chillies and other ingredients except Oil.
  • Mix well and make a stiff dough adding required water.
  • Add the Oil and knead the dough again for about 2 minutes. Cover and keep aside for half an hour. We used Til Oil.
  • Divide the dough to 5 equal portions.
  • Roll out the paratha into 5" diameter thick roundels. Dust with the whole wheat flour while rolling the paratha.
  • Place the tava on the gas on high flame. Spread Oil | Ghee|Clarified Butter on the surface and when this gets hot, reduce the flame to medium (You may also use any vegetable oil).
  • Place the rolled Paratha on the hot tava..let one side cook for about 2 minutes. Flip to the other side. Gently drizzle very little Ghee|Clarified butter on its surface. Once both the sides have got golden brown spots, the Paratha is done. Continue similarly for the remaining parathas.
  • Serve hot with any Raita | Pickle | Homemade Butter | Curd.
