Instructions
Pour enough boiling water to cover 1.5 cups of roughly chopped spinach. In a minute, drain the water and add enough cold water. Drain off the spinach.
Add blanched spinach along with ¼ cup of mint leaves & 1 cup of coriander leaves/cilantro to a blender.
Without adding any water, blend into a smooth puree.
In a mixing bowl, add 2 cups whole wheat flour, ½ teaspoon red chilli powder, ¼ teaspoon asafoetida, ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder, salt as needed.
Next add the prepared spinach puree.
Mix it well, utilizing the water content from the spinach puree.
Sprinkle water as needed and knead it into a soft, firm dough. Add 1 teaspoon oil on top.
Knead again for 3-4 mins until it is smooth & pliable.
Make equal sized balls out of the dough (of desired size)
Dust a ball of dough in whole wheat flour and flatten it.
Roll each ball of dough into a roti of about 1mm in thickness. Repeat this with rest of the dough.
Meanwhile heat a tawa for cooking the paratha. Once hot, set the flame on medium. Gently place the prepared paratha on hot tawa
Cook the paratha on a hot tawa until there are many golden spots.
Spread a few drops of oil/ghee on both sides, cook for a few more seconds and remove from heat.
Serve hot with
side dish
of your choice.
Notes
Adjust spices as per preference.
If you don’t wish to use oil for cooking, the paratha can be cooked phulka style too, without any oil directly on the flame.
