Palak (Spinach) Paratha

Ingredients



2 cups whole wheat flour

1/2 tsp jeera powder

1/2 tsp red chilli powder

1/2 tsp garam masala powder

1 cup chopped spinach

salt to taste

ghee as required



Method



Blanch spinach in boiling water & puree it.



Mix the wheat flour with salt & spices. Add the spinach puree & warm water (if required) to knead into a soft dough.





Divide into lemon sized balls. Roll one ball at a time on a lightly floured surface, spread some ghee on one side. Roll with your hands like a cigar & make it into the shape of a coil.



Press it down with the palm of your hand & roll it to the size of a chappathi.





Cook on a hot griddle, spreading some ghee on both sides. Cook till both the sides are toasted.



Serve with yoghurt & dal.
