Servings: 10
Calories: 168kcal
Ingredients
- 2.75 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup Sattu flour roasted gram flour
- 1/4 cup onion very finely chopped
- 100 grams Broccoli
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp Turmeric
- 1.5 tsp Cumin powder
- 1.5 tsp Red chili powder
- Salt to taste
- 2 to 3 tbsp Water for kneading
- 2 to 3 tbsp whole wheat flour for dusting
- 2.5 tbsp oil for cooking the paratha
Instructions
Blanching
- Chop broccoli into florets. Blanch them in hot water. Drain completely. Let it sit undisturbed to make sure there is no water.
Shredding
- Once done, shred this finely using a shredder or mince this along with garlic, cumin powder, turmeric powder, chili powder and mix well using a whisk.
Kneading the dough
- Now, add wheat flour, Sattu flour, salt and finely chopped onions to a large mixing bowl. Add the shredded broccoli and mix again.
- Begin kneading the dough by sprinkling water little by little. Knead until you have a smooth dough.
- DO NOT USE MORE WATER. The broccoli releases water eventually and will help in kneading the dough.
Rolling the Parathas
- Once done, divide the dough into 10 equal parts. Shape each portion into a ball. Flatten the ball into a thick disk.
- Dust with flour and roll into parathas that are approximately 2mm thick. Do not be tempted to make thin parathas.
- When this is done, heat a tawa.
- Cook the paratha on each side till golden spots begin to appear.
- Flip, smear oil and cook for 20 secs each side. Remove and drain on a kitchen towel. Repeat the rolling and cooking for the remaining dough.
Notes
Do not add more water to the dough. The broccoli will release water eventually and this will be enough to hold the dough together.
