Mooli Paratha/Radish Stuffed Paratha


Mooli Stuffed Parathas!
 This is probably the third or fourth time I made stuffed Parathas and the last few times, I guess i have achieved consistency! They turned out pretty well, among all stuff parathas, I like the taste of Mooli Paratha the best!

To make this we need:

Grated Radish -  2 cups (Sqeeze the water out and it can be used to prepare the dough for the roti base)
salt
oil
chopped corriander leaves leaves
turmeric powder
chopped green chillies and half cup finely chopped onion

For the dough:
ashirvad atta - 2 cups
oil, salt and water as required

The onion and green chillies need to be very finely chopped, otherwise it will tear up the parathas while being rolled.Heat a pan, add some oil and add the chopped oions and fry till translucent. Add chopped green chillies and turmeric powder and salt as required. Add the grated radish and keep frying till the radish gets cookes.

Put the heat off and make the stuffing into small sized balls. Prepare the dough for the paratha and make them into small balls.

Flatten each ball with a rolling pin. Make sure its a bit thick on the middle and thinner around the edges. Stuff it with radish and close the dough on all sides. Flatten again with rolling pin and hands and cook it in medium flame on a dosa tawa..


Parathas served with butter and Curd..
