Palak Paratha / Spinach Paratha Recipe

Palak/Spinach is very common easily available green vegetable and can be used in many ways in our cuisine in many forms like rice, salad, paratha, side dish, soup, dal etc.. I have already shared the recipe for Palak Thepla where I cook the spinach before adding it to the flour while preparing dough. Whilst this paratha can be prepared with minimal ingredients on a busy day in a less time. As I say always, if you are mastered in rolling the chapatis you can make paratha out fo anything! Lets go though the procedure.

Sabudana Kheer

Sabudana Kheer is a simple rich dessert which requires less time for the preparation provided you already have the soaked the sago/sabudana :) During fasting days we find various ways to fill our stomach and try finding various options in the so called fasting food and end up eating more :) So for such  experiments Sabudana Kheer is an option for people who have sugar cravings. I added color to the kheer you can skip if you do not like.

Dill Leaves Pulav

Dill Leaves called as Shepu in Marathi and Sabbasige soppu in Kannada is a simple with a decent fragrance leafy vegetable available through out the year. The most common form of using this vegetable in Indian cuisine is a quick stir fry served along with Roti/Chapati. The stir fry sabzi can be prepared with any of the dals like moong dal / toor dal by soaking it for required time. I usually make Pulav on the weekends as a Brunch since we wake up very late :) This will be a mix of almost all the vegetables that I find in my kitchen! Methi Pulav is the regular one for which I have already shared the details. I do not find much difference in the procedures for preparing any vegetable Pulav. It can be almost same, but you should be sure of the quantity of spices or the salt to be added :) Here is the procedure that I follow to prepared Dill leaves Pulav.

Gobi Cheese Paratha

Paratha is a quick and healthy option for lunch box on a busy day if you do not have enough time to prepare a separate breakfast and a side dish. If you are familiar rolling the parathas, you can make it with any stuffing inside. I add whatever veggies I find in my kitchen for the stuffing. You can even do this with the rice, just add all the veggies along with the rice and cook! but do not compromise on the taste :).  Gobi Parathas are always healthy, adding cheese makes it even more tastier and kids will like it. Addition of onions makes it crispy, you can skip if you do not like.
