Carrot & Corn Parathas

Some weeks back I made carrot & corn parathas. A leftover of sorts, so thought lets try! And it turned out to be quite tasty!

I paired it with Phudina Raita which went well with the parathas. This dish is good for breakfast, lunch or dinner! 

So here's the recipe of the quick & yummy parathas:

Makes 10-12 parathas. Preparation Time: 15 mins. Cooking Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

For Parathas Filling:
1½ cup carrots, grated
1 cup sweet corn, boiled, half crushed
1 medium sized potato, boiled
1 tsp garam masala
½ tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp green chilli paste or finely chopped
1 tsp ginger paste or grated ginger
a pinch of sugar
salt as per taste

For Dough:
1½ cup sifted wheat flour
1 tbsp oil
1 tsp salt

For Roasting:
Ghee or Oil

For Garnish:
Few sprigs of Coriander or Cilantro

For Raita:
1½ cup Yoghurt/Curd
10-12 mint leaves (phudina), finely chopped
salt as per taste

Method:

1. Grate the carrots & half crush the boiled corn. Boil the potato. 

  

2. Mix in all the ingredients under 'For Parathas Filling'. We use the potatoes for binding so use accordingly.
Divide into equal sized balls. 

3. Now make the dough for parathas using the ingredients under 'For Dough'. 

4. Roll out rotis and make parathas as usual with the stuffing.

5. Roast it with ghee or oil as preferred. 

6. For the raita, beat the curd, add the chopped mint leaves and salt.

7. Serve the parathas hot with cold raita.

Notes & Tips:

1. For Jains: Substitute the boiled potatoes for mashed boiled bananas and proceed.
