Kasoori Methi Paratha
















Time for some garam garam parathas

You Need
1 cup kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves)
1 cup Wheat flour
1/2 cup besan
1 tsp ajwain
1tbsp salt
1tbsp GGP
1tsp haldi
4 green chillies crushed
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup curd
1 tbsp oil

1.Dry roast methi leaves and grind to coarse powder.
2.Mix all the ingredients and knead into a soft dough using lil water.
3.Keep covered for 20 minutes.
4.Make golf sized balls and roll out into parathas.
5.Roast on tava/griddle until cooked completely with slight golden dots.
6.Apply lil oil or butter on both sides of the paratha.
7.Serve hot with curds,pickle and thin sliced onions.

My Tip:- Home made curds goes the best with parathas. Will post how 2 make curd @ home in USA temperatures.
You can make this version with fresh methi leaves as well.Remove the stems,wash and chop fine with rest of ingredients.The aroma of kasuri methi compelled my neighbours visit me :)
