Methi paratha



Do not feel like writing much . So no prelude here. :-)

Need :

Finely chopped fresh methi / fenugreek leaves,
Haldi / turmeric powder ,
Red chilli powder,
Whole wheat flour (atta),
Ajwain / carrom seeds,
Salt to taste,
Cooking oil to fry the parathas.



How to :

Knead the flour with all the ingredients (first knead well with the methi leaves ... they tend to lose water ... and then keep adding water as required).



Heat a tawa / gridle.

Roll out round parathas.

Cook them on the tawa with a little oil till both sides are brown.


Goes great with dahi / curd and achar on the side!

  2. Haha...I like the frank "non-prelude". I feel the same way some times. Methi parathas are the best!
