Kasuri Methi Masala Roti

Ingredients

Kasuri Methi                                                                                                     3 tsp
Atta         (Wheat Flour)                                                                                    5 scoops
salt to taste
jeera powder                                                                                                      1 and a 1/2 tsp
oil                                                                                                                       2-3 tsp
water                                                                                                                  for kneading the dough
red chilli powder can be added if u want spicy paratha... I avoid because my son is young.
You can also us the same dough for puri, just make it firm.



Mix atta, kasuri methi, jeera powder, oil, salt and water and knead to get a soft and round dough. Cover and set aside for half an hour or more.


Now roll out the rotis round and cook both sides.


You can even make puris from this dough. For puri you should not set aside the dough, instead roll out the puri and deep fry immediately.

  1. Wow...why didn't this ever cross my mind. I love Methi Parathas but I don't find fresh Methi leaves around here.I can definitely get Kasuri methi, I will surely give this a try.

  2. Isha, you also get frozen methi leaves, give them a try. Kasuri methi can be used in roti, puri, aloo sabzi.

  3. I use Kasuri methi in most masaledar currys I make, so i always have it. I'll look for frozen ones in the supermarket. I didn't know we get those. Thanks for the tips dear.
