Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 cups of Wheat Flour
  • 1 tsp Jeera
  • 1.5 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp Besan
  • 1.5 cups of Methi leaves
  • 2 finely chopped green chilli
  • 3-4 tbsp Green coriander leaves
  • 2 tbsp grated ginger

Instructions
 

  • To make Methi Paratha, take 2.5 cups of Wheat Flour in a mixing bowl.
  • Add 1 tsp Jeera, 1.5 tsp salt, and 3 tbsp Besan to the bowl.
  • Add 1.5 cups of finely chopped Methi leaves. Properly wash them 3-4 times before adding them to the bowl.
  • Add 2 finely chopped green chilli, 3-4 tbsp finely chopped Green coriander leaves, and 2 tbsp grated ginger to the bowl.
  • First, mix everything well. Then, gradually add water and knead to make a normal dough like the one we make for making Rotis.
  • Add 2 tsp Desi ghee, mix and knead well. The dough for making Methi Paratha is ready now. Cover the lid and keep it aside for 10-15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, remove the lid, apply desi ghee to your palms, and make large Loi or wheat balls for making the Paratha.
  • Rub the ball in wheat flour and roll it with a rolling pin and a board. To give a triangle shape to the Paratha, first roll it into the shape of the Roti, then apply desi ghee, and sprinkle some wheat flour.
  • Fold it from the middle, apply desi ghee, and sprinkle wheat flour in the same manner, and fold it again to give the dough a triangular shape.
  • Now, sprinkle some flour, and roll it into a thin triangle shape.
  • Heat a Pan on medium flame, and proceed to cook the Paratha.
  • As soon as it gets crisp on one side, flip it, and apply desi ghee on top.
  • Flip it, apply desi ghee on the other side as well, and cook both sides evenly until they get crisp and golden brown.
  • Serve with Curd, Amla Pickle, and butter. Enjoy!
