INSTRUCTIONS
Preparation For Mix Veg Paratha
-
Rinse, peel and chop the veggies.
-
Then steam or boil the veggies in a pressure cooker or steamer till they are thoroughly cooked.
-
If you are mixing the raw vegetables with water while cooking, then do not discard the water.
-
Some of this water can be added to the dough while kneading. Also you can add this water to make soups or dals.
-
When the veggies cool down, then mash with a potato masher. Mash very well.
-
Add finely chopped spinach. If you do not have spinach, then you can add other green like amaranth or fenugreek (methi).
-
Add chopped coriander leaves, green chilies and ginger.
-
Add cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, garam masala powder, asafoetida and salt.
-
Mix the spices and salt very well with the mashed veggie mixture.
Kneading Dough And Rolling Veg Paratha
-
Add whole wheat flour (atta). Make a well and add oil or ghee.
-
Bring everything together and start to knead.
-
No need to add water while kneading. Add water only if its a must. Otherwise the dough becomes sticky.
-
in case if the dough becomes sticky then add some more flour.
-
Knead to a smooth dough.
-
Pinch medium sized ball from the dough. Flatten & sprinkle some flour all over it.
-
Gently roll to a size of a chapati or roti. Add more flour if required while rolling.
Making Veg Paratha
-
Place the rolled vegetable paratha on a hot tava.
-
When the base is one-fourth cooked, flip. Spread some ghee or oil on this side.
-
Flip again when the second side is half cooked. Apply ghee on this side now.
-
Flip again a couple of times to get the parathas browned and cooked well.
-
You can also press the paratha edges with a spatula or spoon, so that they are fried well. Since some times, the paratha edges are not cooked well.
-
Make all mix vegetable parathas this way.
-
Serve mix vegetable paratha with curd or pickle or topped with butter.
