Methi Beetroot Parathe

Hello Friends,

My second recipe is a very common Indian bread (or parathe) served almost everyday in the household. However I have tried to make it a little healthier by stuffing them with beetroot and fenugreek leaves.

Ingredients

1. Beetroot (Peeled, washed and shredded) - 1 cup
2. Methi (or fenugreek leaves, washed and finely chopped) - 2 cups
3. Wheat Floor - 2 cups
4. Salt : As per taste
5. Cardamon powder - 1 tsp

Procedure

• Step 1

  Head one tsp oil in the pan and add finely shredded/chopped beetroot to it. Fry it a bit. Then add salt, coriander powder and a pinch of turmeric to it. Stir it for couple of minutes untill it looses its moisture. Switch off the flame and allow it to cool.
  
  



• Step 2

  In a bowl mix wheat flour and chopped fenugreek leaves and knead it into soft dough using lukewarm water.



• Step 3

  Now make even sized balls of this dough and before rolling, make a depression and insert the beetroot stuffing into these.
  
  



• Step 4

  Roll each ball into 3 mm rotis.
  
  



• Step 5

  Put these into tava and cook while applying little oil on each sides.
  



• Step 6

  Serve hot with raita (curd dipping prepared by adding salt, sugar and shredded cucumber).
