EASY PALAK PARATHA RECIPE

in , on Wednesday, July 25, 2012

       I had some left over palak after I made palak poori for my kid and it was too little to make palak paneer or anything else. I wanted to try aloo palak gravy for long time, but palak was too less. So ended up in making palak paratha. Had it with tomato garlic chutney,the best combo I would say!
Spinach-Paratha

INGREDIENTS (6 parathas)

Wheat flour/Atta 1 cup
Spinach/Palak,chopped 1 cup
Jeera 1 tsp
Sambar/red chilli powder 1 tsp
Turmeric powder 1/8 tsp
Oil 2 – 3 tblsp

Method:

  1. Wash the spinach and tear the thick stem in the leaf and chop them roughly. Heat a pan with oil and splutter jeera in it. Add the chopped palak and fry in low flame.
