Garden Stuffed Paratha

This is a very healthy, highly nutrient, very tasty paratha, which my friend Swapna made for us at dinner. I liked it very much so got some photos/recipe during preparation and blogged it to share with all.
Ingredients

For Dough
1 Small bunch Spinach
2 Cups of Wheat flour
1/2 Tbsp Ajwain
1 Tbsp Ginger-Garlic Paste
Water to prepare dough
Salt to Taste

For Stuffing
1 Cup Grated Beetroot
1 Cup Grated Carrot
2 Boiled Potato (Mashed to paste)
1 Cup Soaked Green Moong Dal
(Mashed to slight paste)
1/2 Cup Soaked/ Frozen Green peas
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 Tbsp Garam Masala
Little Coriander Leaves
Salt to Taste

Preparation of Dough
Step 1: Wash Spinach thoroughly and boil in little amount of water for 5minutes. Once cold grind it to a fine paste.
 Step 2: Take the required amount of wheat flour and mix it with the Spinach paste, then add little salt, Ajwain, Ginger-Garlic Paste and again mix all to prepare a thick dough. Keep it aside for some time.


Preparation of Garden Stuffing
Step 1: Mix all the ingredients mentioned above for the stuffing and keep it aside for some time, during this time all the ingredients mix with each other to give a nice taste and flavor.

Preparation of the Paratha
Step 1: Take sufficient quantity of the dough to make a lemon size balls.
Step 2: Press the dough balls to make it round and flat, like chapati.
Step 3: Add the sufficient amount of Garden Stuffing on the flattened dough, and fold the dough to cover the Garden Stuffing from all sides.











Step 4: Press the dough again to flatten it to the extent that the inside stuffing should not come out more.
Step 5: Heat a flat pan on medium flame, add the above paratha on the pan, add some ghee/ oil on it. Let the paratha fry for some time on the both sides.













And so the Paratha with all the garden vegetables stuffing so ready to eat.

Thank you Swapna for preparing this dish for us at dinner. While writing this blog I was very much eager to prepare it my self and eat with you all again. Will try for sure.
