Broccoli paratha
By Manasa
This paratha is a small variation to the traditional parathas. Instead of stuffing the vegetables inside rolled out rotis, we grind the vegetable into a smooth paste and add the paste to the atta while kneading the dough. So am not sure whether to name it as paratha or vegetable chappatti. Whatever be the name given, it is definetely a healthy food and an easier way to eat the vegetables.
This method is especially easy for making parathas with watery vegetables like spinach (palak chappatti), avocado chappatti, radish (mooli chappatti), turnip (shalgham chappatti), tofu chappatti etc.
