This recipe of Palak paratha is very easy to make. Just mix together all the ingredients mentioned and make the dough and roll it out and fry it like rotis. And your healthy parathas are ready. These palak parathas can be served with pickle, butter, curd, tomato ketchup or chutney.

Here is the step by step recipe for Palak Parathas with pictures:

Makes: 8-10 parathas
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Cooking Time: 2 minutes per paratha

Ingredients:

Palak leaves: 2 cups finely chopped
Wheat Flour: 1 and 1/2 to 2 cups
Chili Powder: 1 tsp
Turmeric Powder: 1/2 tsp

Carom Seeds: 1 tsp
Oil: 2 tsp
Potato: 1 small boiled and grated

Method of Preparation:

2. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and roll out each portion into a circle of 6″ diameter.
3. Heat a Pan and cook each paratha till golden brown spots appear on both sides. Serve with butter, chutney, ketchup,curd or pickle. In my house everyone prefers eating it with butter.

Parathas have always been a hit at my house and I make different types of them very often. Whether you want to sneak in veggies to your kids (Methi parathas, Carrot Parathas, Beetroot Paratha, Tomato Paratha or Palak Parathas) or try some other different variation (Chicken Kheema Paratha, Dal Paratha, Corn cheese capsicum parathas), they are sure to be loved by all.
