RAJGIRA PARATHA

Rajgira paratha is made like we make the normal parathas viz. alloo, lauki etc. It is quite tasty and healthy too.

One thing you remember, serve it hot.  If it becomes cold, it does not taste as good as  the hot stuff.







Let us look at the recipe now:


Preparation time: 10 minutes
cooking time: 20 minutes
serves: 1

Ingredients:

1/2 cup rajgira
1 small potato boiled and mashed
2 tbsp arrow root power (koova podi)
1 small onion chopped
2 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves
garam masala, black pepper powder, dhania and jeera powder  - 1/4 tsp each
1 small green chilli chopped
less than 1/4 tsp red chilli powder
a generous pinch of asafoetida
a generous pinch of ajwain.
salt
2 tbsp wheat flour
oil for cooking the partha.

Method:

Put all the ingredients in a bowl, mix well and keep on kneading till you get a nice dough out of it. divide into two parts.

Heat a non stick tava, smear with oil.  keep one ball of dough on the tava and spread the same with your palm to make the paratha. apply oil and cook both the sides till crispy.
serve hot with sauce, potato stew.

TIPS: cook the same in low flame.
