Palak Chapathi

Was feeling bored of doing palak the very usual way with panneer. So searched the net for a new. This one was very yummy.

Wheat flour - 1 cup

Palak greens - 3/4 cup chopped
Garam masala powder - 1/4 to 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Coriander leaves - 2 tbsp
Jeera - 1 tsp
Ajwain seeds (Omam) - 1/2 tsp
Green Chilli - 1
Oil - 1 tsp
Salt - to taste


Method:

1. Heat oil in a pan - add  jeera, ajwain seeds and allow it to crackle.Then add green chilli and then add palak greens and saute till it shrinks in volume.
2. Once the greens shrinks,switch off and add coriander leaves and switch it off. Cool down the mixture and grind it to a fine paste. In a mixing bowl add wheat flour, greens paste, turmeric powder, garam masala powder and required salt.
3. Add required water little by little and knead it to a soft dough.Then divide the dough into equal lemon sized balls. Flour the surface and take one ball and flatten it.
4. Then start rolling it gently to a thin chappathi. Heat a dosa tawa , transfer the chappathi, drizzle little oil and cook till brown spots appear then turn over to other side and cook. Serve hot with raita / dal or your favourite sidedish.

I made Dal to go along with this.
