Recipe:
Step 1- Add carom seeds, salt, and oil to wheat flour and knead to a smooth dough using lukewarm water and keep aside
Step 2- Heat oil in a pan and sauté cumin seeds, chopped green chili, and garlic for 20secs and then add chopped spring onion leaves and methi leaves
Step 3- Fry the leaves for 10secs and then add garam masala, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and turn off the flame. Do not leave the stuffing for longer time otherwise, it will start releasing water

Dust the ball with some flour and start rolling the paratha. Roll like a thick roti
Step 5- Heat a tawa and place the paratha. When one side is half cooked flip the paratha
Spread ghee/ oil and cook until you see brown spots. Flip again and apply ghee/ oil on the other side too
Step 6- Flip more if required. Cook until the paratha is evenly cooked and remove on a kitchen towel
Serve hot-hot parathas with mango pickle and curd. Have a cup of ginger tea too. 🙂
