Methi Parathas

There are many types of parathas like aloo paratha, methi paratha, lacha paratha, plain paratha, etc. And these are made very easily with a very high nutritious value. Moreover you can add your favorite flavors. So I like to introduce you to the recipe "Methi Paratha".....






Ingredients
  • 3 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1 bunch of methi washed and chopped into small pieces
  • 1 medium sized onion chopped into very small pieces
  • 1 tsp jeera/Cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp of chili powder
  • 1 tsp of coriander powder
  • 1 tsp of olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt

Method

  • Take a thava/pan, put oil season jeera until it starts sputtering
  • Add onions and fry until translucent
  • Then add all the remaining masala powders and fry for ½ minute
  • Now add the chopped methi leaves and fry for another minute
  • For the above mixture add the wheat flour and make dough adding water only if required.
  • Keep aside for 30mins with a lid covered.
  • Then roll the parathas as thin as possible and roast on both sides on thava until u see small brown spots and smear some ghee/oil if desired.
Preparation Time:
10mins for mixture
30mins for dough
10mins to prepare parathas

Note:
Dough is to be made not so soft not so hard then you get parathas very soft and thin.
Can be served with any curry or ketchup or even curd(yorgurt/dahi).
