  • 1 teaspoon Kasuri methi
  • ¼ teaspoon ajwain/ carom seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin powder
  • ½ teaspoon Kashmiri chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon garam masala
  • 2 tablespoon of oil
  • Salt according to taste
  • ¾ cup water for kneading

How to Prepare

• • Take a large bowl and add 2 cups of wheat flour into it.
  • Now add ¼ teaspoon turmeric, ¼ teaspoon cumin powder, ½ teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder, 2 tablespoon mint, 2 tablespoon coriander, 1 teaspoon Kasuri methi, 1 teaspoon ginger paste, ¼ teaspoon ajwain and ½ teaspoon garam masala.
  • Mix well and then add salt according to your taste along with 2 tablespoons of oil.
  • After this, mix again. You need to mix so well that the flour's texture feels like that of breadcrumbs. The spices must get mixed well in the flour.
  • Once the spices are mixed well, add 1 cup of fresh curd in the mixture.
  • After this, you can begin the kneading process.
  • In case, you need water, take the same in little quantities and knead the dough.
  • Once the dough is ready, take 1 teaspoon of oil and grease it on the dough.
  • Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
  • After 5 minutes, pinch a small ball-sized dough and roll it nicely between your palms.
  • Roll the ball into a small roti, thicker than usual rotis.
  • Spread ½ teaspoon of oil and fold the roti into a semi-circle and then fold it once again to give it a cone shape.
  • Now dust it with wheat flour and roll it into triangular parathas.
  • Heat the Tawa and place the triangular parathas on it.
  • Cook the parathas on medium-high flame by flipping the parathas on both sides.
  • If you wish then you can grease some butter or ghee on the cooked parathas.
  • Flip again and cook on both the sides so that the ghee or butter gets absorbed.
  • Serve it with gravy, raita or sauce and pickles.

Instructions

• Always avoid using running curd. The curd needs to be thick and creamy.
