Start your morning the Punjabi way with palak paratha. Packed with iron-rich spinach, palak paratha is pretty simple to make and pairs well with curd, pickle, or a dollop of white butter for a wholesome meal.

Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour 1/4 cup chopped palak 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon red chilli powder 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder 1/4 cup water Oil for cooking

Step 1

Knead the dough with atta, palak, salt, red chilli powder, cumin powder, and water.

Step 2

Take small portions of the dough and shape them into balls. Let them rest.

Step 3

Roll each ball into a thin circle. Heat a tawa, drizzle some oil and cook the paratha.

Step 4

Keep brushing with oil and flipping till the paratha is cooked on both sides.

Step 5

Serve with dahi and your favourite achaar or chutney.
