C3 Paratha

C3 – Corn, Cheese, Capsicum Paratha.:)

This recipe was a block buster hit on my no-onion-garlic day. Its very tasty and pretty easy and quick to prepare. I think it will also be a good lunch box recipe.

Makes: 2 Paratha

Atta for dusting and butter for cooking the parathas

Method of Preparation:

1. Knead the dough using the flour, salt and sufficient amount of water. The dough should be soft. Divide dough into eight equal parts. Roll lightly with your palm to form spherical shape and keep aside.
2. Mix all the ingredients mentioned above for filling and keep aside.
3. Take one dough portion and roll it using rolling pin till you get a circular shape of around 6 inch diameter. Repeat with another portion of dough.
4. Take one of the rolled circles and place on a flat surface. Take a portion of the filling and spread evenly.
5. Cover with the other rolled dough circle and seal the edges gently.
6. Heat frying pan, put half a tsp of butter and place the paratha on the pan. Cook the paratha on a medium flame till both sides are cooked, i.e. small brownish spots appear on both sides. You can add little butter if required.
7. Your delicious C3 paratha is ready. Cut it into 4 wedges. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
