Brocflowpper Paratha / Broccoli , cauliflower ,Bell Pepper Paratha

 

 

 

                                            Paratha is a staple when it comes to a lunch box . No messy hands , no leftover sabzi.. Like most of the moms I also want to hide most of the vegetables in kiddo's food . While packing in the lunch box , I cut the paratha like a pizza in small 8 pieces so the kiddos can pick one piece at a time and dip in yougurt or ketchup .

 

 

What we need :-

 

Cover :

3 cups wheat flour

salt to taste

1/2 tsp oil

 

Filling :

 

1/2 cup grated cauliflower

1/2 cup grated broccoli

1 medium green pepper finely chopped

1 tsp ginger paste

1/2 tsp garlic paste

1-2 green chillies finely chopped

1/4 tsp turmeric powder

1/2 tsp aamchur(raw mango)powder

1tsp garam masala powder

salt to taste

 

Butter or ghee optional to apply while cooking

 

To proceed :

 

1) Make a soft dough woth the wheat flour and keep aside covered for 10 min .

2) Mix all the ingredients of the filling .

3) Take two lemon sized dough balls and roll into about 6"circles .

4) Spread enough filling on one of them and cover with the other .

5) seal the ends very well .

6 ) Roll out the paratha to desired thickness .

7) Cook on a hot griddle till tiny brown spots appear on each side .

8) Add little butter or ghee to finish cooking .

 

              Serve hot with raita ,ketchup or have it as is . This stays soft even after getting cold and goes really well in the lunch box .
