CORIANDER GARLIC PARATHA

Paratha or flatbread is a very popular dish from the northern part of inida . We have so many varieties of paratha.Wach one has its own unique taste and flavor. Today I am sharing Coriander Garlic Paratha with some secret ingredients which enhance the flavor and taste. It is very easy and quick to make . We enjoyed it with some authentic chole. It was finger licking good. My family is a huge fan of paratha.

Main Ingredients for Coriander Garlic Paratha:

  • Whole Wheat Flour : Use the best quality whole wheat flour to make parathas.
  • Sattu Flour:Adding sattu flour gives a nice flavor and enhances the taste.It consists of a mixture of ground pulses and cereals.It is a great source of protein.
  • Fresh Coriander:Wash the coriander nicely , dry it and then finely chop.
  • Garlic: You can finely chop it of mince it. I have minced the garlic to get the full flavor.
  • Ajwain / Carom Seeds: Carom seeds aids digestion and also enhances the flavor and taste of the paratha.
  • Chutney Powder: Chutney powder is the star ingredient and should not be skipped. I have used home made Chutney Powder.
  • Salt to taste:I have used himalayan pink salt. You can use any iodised salt.
  • Fresh Green Chilli: Adds mild spice to the parathas. You can skip it if you plan to feed young kids.
  • Yogurt : I have used home made thick yogurt here.It is not sour.
  • Water: Add water only little by little to knead the dough if needed.
  • Oil:I have used oil to shallow fry the paratha . You can use ghee instead of oil.

What Is Paratha ?

Paratha is a flatbread from the Indian Sub Continent. Traditionally Parathas are made using ghee but oil can also be used. The Punjabi method is to stuff parathas with a variety of stuffings. A Rajasthani mung bean paratha uses both the layering technique together with mung dal mixed into the dough. It can be eaten for breakfast or served as a main course for lunch or dinner. It is traditionally served with a dollop of white butter and pickle or with pickle and curd .It can be served with Raita ,curries and Dal . There are different techniques to make stuffed and layered paratha.
