Broccoli Paratha Recipe

Ingredients

• Chapati dough
• 2 Broccoli heads
• 3 green chillies
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 1 tablespoon besan (chickpea flour)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Atta – Whole wheat flour for dusting
• 2 tablespoon sunflower oil / ghee
• 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

1. 1

   Shred the broccoli in a food processor. While shredding broccoli, add in green chillies and ginger along with the broccoli and shred.

2. 2

   Heat a pan and add in the finely shredded broccoli mixture along with a tablespoon of chickpea flour (besan) and salt.

3. 3

   Saute for around 5 minutes till the mixture looks dry. Set aside to cool completely.

4. 4

   Take a golf ball size of dough and slightly flatten the dough on a well floured surface. Make a small ball out of broccoli mixture ( a lime size ball) and place it in the middle of the flattened dough.

5. 5

   Stretch the dough and pick up the edges of the dough and pinch on top. Keep doing it until the entire broccoli ball is covered and closed.

6. 6

   Repeat with the remaining dough mixture. Let the dough balls rest for at-least 5 minutes before proceeding.

7. 7

   Dust the dough ball generously in flour. Roll gently to a 4-5 inch circle.

8. 8

   Heat a griddle and sprinkle oil on the griddle. Place the rolled dough on the griddle. Sprinkle oil to the top of the paratha and cook for a minute. Flip over and cook for a minute more. Cook till its golden and brown spots appear all over the paratha on both the sides.

9. 9

   Serve hot.
