For Day 3, Week 1 of BM #38, here is a wholesome paratha which can be served for breakfast, brunch, snack, lunch or dinner.
I love these kind of parathas which have a protein component too. I rely on such protein based dishes for my kids when they get back from school. Also any leftover dal can be dressed up and presented differently. :)
Ingredients -
Leftover Dal 1/4 cup (I used Methi-Tomato Dal; Any Dal works)
Salt, Garam Masala, Chaat Masala, Red Chilli Powder, Dhania Powder, Jeera Powder (Add any or all of them according to taste)
Wheat Flour 3/4 cup (or more according to the consistency of the dal paste)
Oil/Ghee to shallow fry
Method Of Preparation -
Blend the dal and all the spices added according to taste. Transfer the paste to a mixing bowl and add the wheat flour to knead into a soft dough.
Cover and set aside for 5 min.
Heat the griddle/tawa.
Pinch the dough into 4-5 equal parts and roll each of them into a thin circle (roti).
Gently place the dough circle on the hot griddle.
After bubbles appear, flip it, spray oil/ghee and after a few seconds, flip it and spray oil/ghee until both sides are uniformly cooked.
Cover in a paper lined box and continue with the rest of the dough.
Serve it with curry of your choice.
