My Mother, Mrs. Shashibala Ramchandani, passed away in her sleep at 9pm due to a massive cardiac arrest here at our residence in Pune on the 19th of April, just 2 days after my birthday. She was the best woman in this world and she made me feel strong and capable of doing anything I wanted. In the last few days that were left of her life, she enjoyed eating these rotis for breakfast alongwith a hot cup of tea on the side. I am posting this recipe today and I sincerely hope all my friends will try it and give me their reviews. Also, for those Zaarites I don't know, I would be so happy if you'd give this a try and get back to me through a review on how you liked it. A maid working for my home and looking after my Mom taught me to make this roti. Ingredients:
3 medium onions, finely chopped |
2 big green chilies, finely chopped |
1/4 cup gram flour |
2 cups whole wheat flour |
1 tablespoon oil |
1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves, washed and chopped |
1 tablespoon salt |
2 -3 tablespoons oil, for kneading |
water, as required, for kneading the dough |
3 tablespoons oil, for cooking the parathas on either side |
Directions:
1. Knead the first nine ingredients together.
2. Pinch off even-sized balls of the dough to make parathas.
3. Use a rolling pin to roll out the parathas.
4. Heat a griddle on the stove top.
5. Cook the paratha on either side on the griddle.
6. Transfer to a plate and serve hot with a cup of hot Indian chai (tea).
7. Enjoy!
