Ingredients
Wheat Flour - 1 cup
Palak (Spinach) 1/2 cup finely chopped
Butter - 1 1/2 tbsp (will taste good if it's prepared at home)
Turmeric - 1/4 tbsp
Jeera (Cumin seeds) - 1 tbsp
Rai (Mustard seeds) - 1/4 tbsp
Green Chillies - 4 or 5
Coriander
Ginger and Garlic paste - 1/4 tbsp
Red Chilli Powder - 1 tbsp
Salt to taste
Oil
Procedure
In a bowl take wheat flour and put all the above ingredients including the finely chopped spinach (Wash the spinach before adding to the wheat flour). Since spinach inheriently contains some water you will not need to add water initially while preparing the dough. If need arises then add some water to prepare the dough. Dough needs to be hard enough to prepare the chapati's. Set aside for 5 mins.
Add 1 tbsp of oil to this dough and mix well. Now take some amount of dough to prepare the chapati's. In a shallow frying pan put 1 tbsp of oil. Heat for a minute and now fry the chapati's. Fry well on both the sides. You might want to add some oil at the edges while frying. Prepare all the paratha's with the same process and your delicious palak paratha's are ready to eat.
Author's Note
This paratha goes very well with curd with sugar or salt. You can add a tinge of butter while serving. The same process can be applied for -
Methi Paratha - Instead of finely chopped Spinach you will need to add finely chopped Methi and prepare the dough.
Mooli Paratha - Instead of finely chopped Spinach you will need to add finely grated Mooli and prepare the dough.
Kakdi (Cucumber) Paratha - Instead of finely chopped Spinach you will need to add finely grated Cucumber and prepare the dough.
Cabbage Paratha - Instead of finely chopped Spinach you will need to add finely chopped Cabage and prepare the dough.
Parmel Paratha - Instead of finely chopped Spinach you will need to add finely grated Parmel and prepare the dough.
