Palak Parantha is a very tasty way of eating your greens. This recipe is a healthy varietion of parantha. It is made with fresh Spinach leaves and whole wheat flour and served with curry and pickle and a cup of curd (yogurt).It can be eaten at break fast,lunch or dinner,and it is perfect food to take for lunch box or picnic.It is good to eat even after a few hours.You can make the dough and keep it in the fridge for 2-3 days and make paranthas when you want.
And here Igo with the recipe of Palak parantha (my variation).
INGREDIENTS:---
Spinach leaves --- 1 bunch very finely choped(or 11/2 cup very finely choped
Wheat flour --- 1 cup
Jawar flour --- 1 cup(insted of jawar you can use 1/2 cup besan and 1/2 cup more wheat flour,this Iused for a change)
Garlic --- 3-4 very finely chopped
Green chilies ---3 finely choped
Onion --- 1 small very finely choped
Cumin seeds --- 1 tea sp fry in a dry pan and crush with hand
salt to taste
Chat masala --- 1/2 tea sp
Oil for frying

Take flour s in abig bowl add spinach mixture, salt to taste.chat masala and make adough and leave for 5 min.
Make 7-8 balls from the dough and roll them in to curcles and make a small hole in the center of the parantha so that it can cook well.

but here I served with paneer bhurji (paneer bhurji recipe coming up)
