Mixed vegetable paratha - quick and easy

Now who does not love paratha, even though you are in dieting. My mouth always water when I have the craving to eat paratha though I want to lose weight.

You can make parathas with any any of the vegetables you like such as Carrot, beetroot, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Onion, Radish, Spinach, Potato, Cottage cheese (Paneer), Peas, raw banana capsicum etc.  In this recipe I am using Chinese cabbage, carrot and radish.

Grate these vegetables and dry roast them slightly to loose the moisture. Do this in lowest heat for 2 - 3 minutes. Do not cook, as these vegetables can be consumed raw we just need to reduce the moisture so rolling out parathas would be easy.

Ingredients:

1. Radish (Red or white), Carrot, Cabbage - grated
2. Green chili - finely chopped - as per taste
3. Ginger - little finely chopped (optional)
4. Coriander leaves a bunch - finely chopped
5. Crushed Cumin - Optional 1/4 to 1/2 tb spn
6. Asafoetida - less than 1/4 t spn
7. You may add red chili pwder / garam masala / chaat masala - little if required
8. Salt to taste
9. Oil for paratha
10. Wheat atta for making the dough
11. Ajwain - carom seeds / ommam / imothagam (optional)

Preparation:

1. In a large bowl add ajwain to atta, little sal and few drops of oil if required mix well
2. Add water little by little and knead the flour and keep aside, covered for 15 - 30 min
3. In the meantime prepare the stuffing. 
4. Dry roast the vegetables for 3 - 5 min in lowest heat, add chili at last. Let is cool down
5. Add coriander leaves, and spice powders.
6. Mix all the ingredients for stuffing in a bowl and add salt at last just before making parathas.
7. Roll out paratha with stuffing, cook on medium heat on both sides till golden brown with little oil.
8. Enjoy the parathas with butter spread and cold yogurt(curd)
