Mooli or Radish Paratha

Hello Everyone

I am back after a long gap... I guess after 2 months... Hope you all missed me :) :) .... I really missed you all ... was busy in outings... some household activity and stuff ... So the blog and cooking left behind for some time... But now will try to post at least 2 recipes in a month .... :) :) .... 

Today I came with a simple but healthy and yummy recipe .... "Radish Paratha"...In hindi we call as  Mooli Paratha ... Mostly Radish is ate in salad by people... But some people including me don't like raw radish .... So in order to consume radish I prefer parathas ... Because radish  has so many good healthy benefits like they  are a very good source of vitamin C which is needed for keeping bones and teeth strong.Secondly they are good source of fiber , potassium , magnesium , etc... So we should add radish in our daily diet... At least once in a week.... So here I come with one yummy recipe of Mooli parathas ... There are many ways to prepare ... here is my way... Lets proceed with recipe...

Ingredients :-

1 Radish washed,peeled and shredded
3-4 tbsp roasted besan or gram flour in 1 tsp of oil
1 tsp red chilly powder
1/2 tsp asfotedia
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp coriander powder
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp Chat masala
1/2 cup chopped coriander
salt to taste
oil to roast the parathas
1 cup wheat flour
water to form dough

Procedure :-

Squeeze the excess water from radish.Roast gram flour till the good roasted smell comes.In another pan add oil , mustard seeds once oil heated.Then add asfotedia. Now add radish and keep the flame low medium.Roast it till the water evaporates.Then add all the masalas and mix it well.Cook for 1-2mins. Now add the roasted gram flour .Give a nice good mix.Cook on low flame for 3-4 mins.Then Cover with lid and cook it for 5 mins. Again open the lid and give a stir.It will look sticky. Don't worry.Again close the lid and cook for 3-4 mins.Cook it till the Gramflour mix and cooked properly with radish.Let the mixture cool down.Garnish with coriander leaves.Now form a dough by wheat flour + salt + 1tsp oil + water.Rest the dough for 20mins.Now with the help of rolling pin and rolling board make a small chapati and fill the filling as shown in picture below.If you want you can sprinkle some Chat masala after adding stuffing in paratha.

Then make a ball  as shown above by covering the edges and roll the chapati.

Roast the chapati by applying oil on medium flame from both the sides.Enjoy hot with chutney or curd :) :)

Note :-  If you want you can eliminate the addition of gram flour.
