Radish or Mooli Paratha

When I was planing what to do for weekend breakfast and I remembered one of my friend used to do Mooli or Radish paratha. I was not so clear of her recipe but tried out my own style and it came out really well than I expected. 


Ingredients: 

  • Radish - 1 
  • Ajwain - 1tsp 
  • Red chili powder - 1tsp 
  • Garam Masala - 1tsp 
  • salt to taste 
  • Oil 
  • Wheat flour - 2cups 

Procedure:
  • Prepare the dough for paratha - In a large pan add the wheat four, salt and water and kneed the dough until it comes to soft, non-sticky consistency.Keep it aside.
  • Now grate the radish and heat oil or butter in frying pan then add ajwain and radish, saute it for 3min.
  • Add the red chili powder, garam masala powder and salt to taste. saute until all raw flavors evaporate. Allow it to cool.
  • Now take small lemon size of the dough, roll into small balls and press a little bit, now add the radish or mooli filling for about 1Tbsp to the center of the pressed dough.
  • Take the dough on all the sides and cover the radish filling. Remove excess dough.
  • Roll into small balls again and press it.
  • Heat ghee or oil in frying pan and cook the paratha for 20-30sec and turn over. Fry the paratha until it becomes golden brown in color.Add ghee if necessary.
  • Serve it with pickle or onion raitha (yogurt with salt and chopped onion).

i used to do mooli paratha like this: grate the radish / mooli in a large bowl.. add wheat flour salt (no water) , prepare the dough. then make paratha using this flour.. this is more healthy in terms of all the vitamins and antioxidants of radish persists
