This is a quick, filling, nutritious breakfast recipe. You can apply simple variations to suit your tastes and make this recipe your own.
 
Preparation Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time: 20 mins
Makes 6 pieces
  Vegetarian  From My Recipe Book
Ingredients
   1 cup wheat flour
   1/2 cup soya flour
   1/2 cup ragi flour
   1 tsp coarsely grounded black pepper
   1/2 tsp salt
   oil
   water
Method

Mix all ingredients except oil and water in a bowl. Use the water to form a stiff dough. Let the kneaded dough stand for 10 mins. Meanwhile, heat a frying pan. Now divide the dough into 6 equal sized balls and roll them out into desired shape [round, oval or triangular] with a rolling pin. Place the rolled paratha on the frying pan. Roast one side for a few seconds and flip it over. Apply a dash of oil on the flipped side and flip and fry till done.

Serving suggestions
  • Serve hot with mango chutney or fruit yoghurt. The kids may love it topped with jam.
  • Gel's Notes
  • For a healthier version, you may use wholemeal flour instead of wheat flour.
  • Ragi Flour may be omitted as it might be difficult to find everywhere. It is a very high source of calcium and hence these parathas make excellent treats for post menopausal women and pregnant women.
