Corn and cheese is always a winning combo and i already posted corn cheese balls recipe but this corn cheese paratha i gave for Kungumam Thozi magazine. It got published in first week of March. Parathas will be in the lunch box menu of kids every week. Mostly i make aloo paratha or gobi paratha for them. When i made this one day for dinner both my kids loved it and requested to make the same for the lunch box too the next day. Liking a same dish by both kids is not easy at my home. I think moms with 2 grown up kids will vouch for it. Try this easy paratha recipe at home and i am sure your teenage kid or the little one will enjoy this corn cheese paratha.

RAGI ALOO METHI PARATHA | MILLET RECIPES

03.13 | Label: Millet recipes, Paratha, Tiffin

Ragi also called as Kezhvaragu in tamil | Finger millet in English , is an easily available millet everywhere. Generally my mom makes puttu with ragi and also dosai and adai too. Though i have tried these all, wanted to try something new with ragi flour. This ragi aloo methi paratha i have tried for the mangayar malar book . Ragi is an excellent source of calcium and very good diabetics. It is a very good source of iron too. You can make this as a stuffed aloo paratha too.

Ragi aloo methi paratha

Preparation Time : 10 mins | Cooking Time : 20 Mins |Makes: 4

Ragi 1/4 cup
Wheat flour 1/4 flour
Red chili powder 1/2 tsp
Salt to taste
Garam masala 2 pinches
Oil 1 tsp + to make the paratha
Potato 1
Methi leaves 2 tbslp (finely chopped)

Boil the potatoes and take out the skin. Adding methi is optional. You can add coriander leaves too.
Mash the potatoes . In a wide bowl add the ragi flour, wheat flour, red chili powder, garam masala, salt , methi leaves and mashed potato.

Make big lemon sized equal balls. Roll one ball at a time gently by dusting this with wheat flour.

Heat a tawa and cook on both sides and add little oil | butter to the paratha.

Repeat this for the rest of the dough.
Serve hot with plain yogurt and a pickle of your choice.

Notes:

The ratio of 1:1 of ragi and wheat flour worked out well for me. If you feel it is difficult to roll add 1 to 2 tblsp extra flour while kneading.
You can add mint leaves also and ajwain seeds to the dough.
Potato makes the dough softer and easy to roll too.
You make into small thick parathas too.

PLAIN PARATHA |PLAIN PARATHA RECIPE |PARATHA RECIPES

01.23 | Label: Breakfast Recipes, Paratha

As South Indians, we always make idli, dosa, upma for breakfast but parathas rarely take place in our menu for breakfast. Some times when i make aloo paratha for kids lunch box and keep the same for me for breakfast. During our trip to Delhi, ( i know i am talking too much about the trip, please bear with me) we happened to have parathas for breakfast on most of the days. But we all enjoyed as whenever we go for an international holiday we end up eating cornflakes, bread and juice for breakfast. Few years back when we go for a North India trip we hunt for places to have South Indian food , but now a days Indian Vegetarian food is more comfortable for us ,especially for me. These plain parathas i have added in my last week's cooking for guests menu. So if you have guest, you need not not make lot of chapathis, just few parathas you can make as they are thick.

Ingredients

Preparation Time : 15 mins | Cooking Time : 30 | Yields :8 Parathas

Whole wheat flour|atta 2 Cups
Oil 1-2 tblsp
Ghee 1-2 Tblsp
Salt To taste
Water To knead the dough

Method:

In a wide bowl add the whole wheat flour and salt. Add water little by little and knead it into a pliable soft dough.
Cover and keep it aside for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into equal parts. Make the portions big and not small as we do for rotis.

Dust the rolling board and and roll the roti into a thick and small disc.
Apply ghee or oil on the disc.

Close the edges and make it into a whole mass. Dust with some flour.

Roll it into a thick paratha. Heat a tawa and place the paratha on the tawa.

Cook on both sides and when they are cooking add few drops of oil on both sides. Repeat the same process for rest of the parathas.

Parathas are ready to serve. Serve this with you favorite sabzi. We had paratha, sabzi and tea for breakfast and replaced tea with Lassi for Dinner. I can say "wow what a comforting meal "

You can make the either round parathas or square ones or triangle parathas.

MIXED VEGETABLE PARATHA |NO ONION NO GARLIC RECIPES

01.16 | Label: Paratha, Tiffin

Mixed vegetable paratha , i generally make when i have few veggies and wanted to clean up the fridge. Though most of the parathas we have have the option of making it without onion and garlic, i always make this mixed vegetable paratha with onion only. But last week, i tried this mixed vegetable paratha, without adding onion and garlic and it turned out nice. As during this navaratri time , in many houses they won’t consume onion and garlic i thought it will be the right time for posting this Mixed vegetable paratha.
mixed-veg-paratha

INGREDEINTS: FOR STUFFING : MAKES 11- 12 APPROX.
You can add the quantity of veggies as per you choice and availability.

POTATO	1
CAPSICUM (FINELY CHOPPED)	2 TBLSP
CORN KERNELS	A HAND FUL
GREEN PEAS	A HAND FUL
CARROT(GRATED)	1/4 CUP
PANEER	5-6 SMALL CUBES
RED CHILLI POWDER	1/2 TSP

SALT	AS NEEDED

INGREDIENTS FOR DOUGH and OTHER INGREDIENTS

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR \|ATTA	1 AND 1/2 CUP
WATER	AS NEEDED
OIL	1 TSP
ATTA	FOR DUSTING
OIL	FOR MAKING PARATHAS

Cook the potatoes till soft and in a pan add water and boil the green peas, corn kernells(i used frozen), paneer cubes for 5 minutes.
Switch off the flame and drain the water and when it is cool, mash them nicely with the hands.
In a wide bowl,add the mashed veggies and paneer, potato, grated carrot, red chilli powder, garam masala, coriander powder, cumin seed powder and salt.
Mix them with your hands nicely. Make equal sized balls. Stuffing is ready for the paratha.

Knead the wheat flour into a pliable dough with enough water and smear it with a tsp of oil and keep it covered for 10 minutes.
Make them into equal sized balls.
To make parathas take a ball of the dough and roll them into a small disc by dusting enough atta .
Place the stuffing in the center and close it.

dust with flour and roll them into a medium sized thick paratha.
I always like parathas thick. If you want you can roll them thinly.

Heat a tawa and when hot, place the rolled parathas on it and cook on both sides till it becomes golden brown. Repeat this for the rest of the dough.

Note:

finely chopped cabbage and grated cauliflower can be added to this. If adding drain the water completely , which it oozes out.
Prepare the stuffing just before you make the parathas. else the salt in that will ooze out water.
If you feel the stuffing is watery by any chance, roast 2 tblsp of besan (kadalai maavu) in a pan and add it to the stuffing and mix well.
Finely chopped coriander leaves can be added.
Kasoori methi can also be added.

Heat a griddle and cook the parathas on both sides. Apply oil | ghee on both sides.

Slightly crush the parathas gently to make the layers more visible.
Serve hot with any Paneer dish or any other side dish of your choice.
