Steps to make PAALAK PARATHA (Savoury Spinach Flatbread):
- To make the Paalak Paratha, first clean the paalak leaves, break away the stiff stems and retain the raw ones.
- Soak the leaves in salted water for about 15 to 20 minutes so that any worms if present in the leaves, may rise to the surface of the water. Rinse the leaves twice in fresh water, and set aside to drain.
- Grind the paalak leaves alongwith the green chilies, ginger and garlic to get a smooth puree. Use a very tiny amount of water for grinding, if required.
- Transfer the puree to a mixing bowl and add to it the flours, carom seeds, garam masala powder, oil and salt to taste.
- Knead into a medium soft dough and apply a little oil over it. Set aside for a while or refrigerate overnight in an air tight container to be used the next day.
- To make the parathas, first heat a griddle. Divide the dough into 12 equal parts and roll them into balls and set aside.
- Take a ball of the dough and start rolling it into a disc using a rolling pin.
- When the disc is almost of 5″- 6″ diameter, apply 1/8 tsp oil on half part of the paratha and sprinkle a little flour on the other half.
- Fold the half part on the other half and give it a light press.
- Repeat this process with the folded half paratha. This will result in a triangle. Dust it with a little flour and start rolling again.
- Roll it into either a triangular shape or a round one as desired
- Transfer the rolled paratha on the hot griddle and roast on one side till a little bubbles appear on the top surface.
- Apply a little ghee on the top and flip it. Now increase the flame to high and apply some ghee on the top half roasted surface.
- Once the bottom surface is well roasted, flip it again and roast well giving a little pressure on the edges of the paratha using a spatula.
- When the flipped side too is done, transfer onto a serving plate.
- Serve the delicious and nutritious Paalak Parathas with some fresh homemade curds, mint coriander chutney and tomato ketchup as accompaniments!
