Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups wholewheat flour
  • 1/4 cup thick curd
  • Water as needed to make a dough
  • A pinch of Hing
  • 2 tsp white sesame seeds
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup chopped methi leaves
  • 1 tsp ginger garlic paste
  • 1/2 tsp chopped green chillies optional
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/4 tsp coriander powder
  • 1/4 tsp red chilli powder optional
  • 2 tsp ghee for the dough and extra to smear on the parathas

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients in a large bowl except the flour, water and ghee.
  • Mix well and then add the flour.
  • Now add water little by little to make a semi soft dough. Apply ghee and knead again. Set the dough aside for 15 mins to rest.
  • Roll out the parathas using a bit of dry flour, making them thicker than rotis. Cook them using some ghee on both sides until golden brown and slightly crisp.
  • Serve warm with some pickles & curd. Ketchup or chutney also works well for kids.
