Spinach is a good green for all of us. To sneak it into kids diet, can be a tough job & we as mom's need to try hard to make them eat this. I am sure most of us as kids hated greens & thought it to be yucky, soggy & stinky!! Well, my kids are not any better than i was :-( So i have to get them to eat this in a hidden form & hence we named this Green Parathas... & they love it!
Ingredients:
Wheat flour - 2 cups.
Spinach - 4 hand fulls
Green Chillies - 3
Ginger - 1" piece
Salt - to taste
Oil - little
Method:
1. Wash the spinach & put in a vessel along with green chillies & ginger & pressure cook them for couple of whistles.
2. Once it cooled down run it through a blender.
3. Now add this to the wheat flour & add salt & mix like chappathi batter.
4. Roll out like regular chapathis, add little oil & fry both sides.
Serve these just like that or with curry or raita. Real good!!
