Dal Parantha recipe

One of the best things about being in India is the immense variety of vegetarian food that's available. Indian diet is primarily vegetarian. My mom made these tastiest of paranthas today and I decided to put the recipe on my blog.

Ingredients-
2 cups whole wheat flour (Atta)
Dal (cooked lentils curry) one cup
1/2 cup water (if required to obtain pizza dough consistency)
Dried green vegetable 1 teaspoon (kasoori methi)
Dried pomegranate seeds 1 teaspoon (anardana)
Green chilly 1
Medium sized onion 1
Coriander seeds 1 teaspoon
Fresh coriander (cilantro)

Procedure-
Mix all the ingredients together except water. Knead the dough and add water of needed to obtain pizza dough consistency. After the dough is ready, make doughballs of 2 inches. Dust a rolling board with flour and roll the dough balls to approxmitely 4 inches diameter. Roast it in a pan on both sides. Add a teaspoon of oil or ghee and shallow fry for 20 seconds.


Enjoy it with butter/curd/achaar or any combination of three.

You could use your leftover dal for this as well.
