Multigrain parathas are a nutritious and delicious way to incorporate various grains into your diet. Packed with fiber, vitamins, and minerals, these parathas are perfect for a wholesome breakfast or lunch.
1/2 cup whole wheat flour 1/4 cup bajra (pearl millet) flour 1/4 cup jowar (sorghum) flour 1/4 cup besan (gram flour) 1/4 cup ragi (finger millet) flour 2 tbsp oats flour 1/4 cup spinach or methi 1 small onion 1-2 green chillies 1 tsp ginger 1 tsp carom seeds 1/2 tsp cumin seeds Salt Water Ghee or oil
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the flours (wheat, bajra, jowar, besan, ragi, and oats).
Add chopped spinach or methi, onion, green chillies, ginger, carom seeds, cumin seeds, and salt. Mix well.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture and knead it into a soft, pliable dough. Cover and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
Divide the dough into equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, dust it with dry flour, and roll it into a round or desired shape.
Heat a tawa or skillet over medium heat. Place a rolled paratha on the tawa and cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip and apply a little ghee or oil. Cook both sides until golden brown spots appear.
Serve the multigrain parathas with curd, pickle, or chutney for a nutritious meal.
