Preparation Time: 5 min
Cooking Time: 15 min
Serves: 2

Ingredients:

·         Chappathi flour - 3 cup
·         Thick Curd - 1 tbsp

To saute:


1.      Spinach - 200gm
2.      Turmeric powder - 1 pinch
3.      Chili powder - 1 tsp
4.      Garlic - 2 or 3
5.      Coriander powder - 3 tsp
6.      Cumin powder - 1 tsp
7.      Salt to taste

Procedure:

 

1.   Clean spinach/ palak with fresh water and set aside.
2.   Heat a medium sized pan. Add fresh spinach and all other ingredients given in “To saute”. Keep in medium flame for 3 min. Spinach will shrink and become soft. Allow it to cool.

3.   Once it cools down, transfer it to a mixer. Add curd and grind into smooth paste.

4.   Take chappathi flour in a mixing bowl and add spinach paste and make it into dough. Adjust salt. Add little water if required. I did not add water as the water content in the spinach paste was sufficient.

5.   Make balls from the dough of required size and roll it into paratha.

6.   Heat a small flat pan. Cook one side of the paratha and roll-over to the other side. Take it off the pan once both sides are cooked.
Serve hot with raita
