Lettuce Paratha

published by ankitawakade on Mar 10, 2009

I love this veggie in sandwich specially in subway footlong but when it comes to my refrigerator I
prefer adding it into paratha or make a koshimbir out of it.My family loves these parathas and these make a great healthy meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups packed finely chopped lettuce(I prefer iceberg or romaine)
  • 1tsp carom seeds
  • 1tsp cumin seeds
  • 1tsp turmeric
  • 1tsp chilli powder
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour+ some for dusting
  • salt warm water
  • oil

Method

In a large bowl mix lettuce,carom seeds,cumin seeds,turmeric,chilli powder,salt.To this add the flour little at a time and mix.Add warm water to make it into a smooth ball.Add a tbsp oil and knead it for a min and let it rest for 15-20 mins.Make small pedhas of the dough.Heat a skillet on medium high.Roll the parathas thicker than chappati.Use enough flour for dusting.Once the skillet is hot, place the paratha on it.When you see the bubbles coming up flip it.Apply 1/2 tsp of oil flip it again and repeat the same process on its other side .Make the remaining batch of parathas in similar manner.Serve hot with curd and lime/green chilli pickle. Note:You could make these parathas healthier by adding grated carrots to it and even make them more tastier by adding grated boiled sweet potato.
