Mooli Paratha's ( Radish )


I remember my mum making this for me when I was in school and it used to be YUMMY !! Today, Mooli Parathas it is :) There is no extra work to be done except for grating the radish of course :D

What all you will need :


  • Radish - 2 nos ( you an use either red/white.. )
  • Atta - 2 cups
  • Salt to taste
  • Green chilli - cut into small roundels ( optional for those who like it spicy)
  • Water to knead the dough
  • Oil - 2 tbsps to mix with Atta


What you need to do :


  • Grate the radish and add it directly into the atta to be kneaded.
  • Knead the dough with salt to taste and some oil and water and chillies if adding any.
  • Please keep in mind that the radish will give out water and so the paratha's need to be rolled out and cooked immediately.
  • Eat them hot with bullseye/ curd with chilli powder/ pickle.

Hope you like it !

Gobi Paratha's


Hmm...  ain't it kinda unfair that roti's and parathas do not get limelight?  Tonight I made Gobi parathas...Let me tell you how I made them .

What you need to do half an hour earlier :

Keep aside:

Cauliflower - 1 medium sized
Jeera - 1/2 tsp
Haldi - 1/4 tsp
Chilli powder - 3/4 tsp ( adjust according to taste)
Garam masala powder - 1 tsp
Salt to taste

Also knead the atta and keep it covered with a wet cloth. The longer it stands, the better the roti's come out :)

What you do with it :

Take the cauliflower and grate it all up.
Take a kadai and heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in it and throw in some cumin. When it is starts spluttering, add the grated gobi, haldi, chilli powder, garam masala and salt to taste - all together.
Saute all this for about three to four minutes until the water given out by the gobi has all evaporated.
Take off the gas and allow to cool till room temperature.

Just half an hour before you want to eat dinner :

Roll out the Chapathi like you normally do, just a little smaller.
Put in about 2 tablespoons of the gobi masala in the middle of the chapathi.
Fold the chapathi in from all four sides like a square.
Dust this in some atta and roll out into paratha's taking care not to let the filling spill outside.
Cook on a tava as you normally make paratha's.

Enjoy with Pudina chutney /curd with chilli powder/ pickle :)

P.s: You can apply a little ghee on the paratha just before serving ;)
