SUJI PARANTHA

This suji/rawa parantha is very different and soft melt in mouth parantha with a very different version of paranthas. 

It's a great change from regular paranthas. They are so soft and stays fresh for a longer duration which children can enjoy in school lunch or you can carry it while traveling.



INGREDIENTS
2 cups water
1 cup suji / rawa
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp ghee


1 cup grated potato (Aloo)
1/4 cup whole wheat flour (Atta)
1/2 tsp ajwain (carom seeds)
1/2 tsp coriander powder (dhaniya powder)
1/2 tsp cumin powder (jeera powder)
1/2 tsp haldi powder (turmeric powder)
1/2 tsp roasted and crushed kasuri meethi
1/2 tsp amchur powder or chaat masala (dry mango powder)
1/2 inch grated ginger
chili to taste
some freshly chopped coriander

METHOD
Bring water to boil, add suji to it. Reduce the flame to low and add salt and ghee. Keeping the flame low, cook for 2-3 minutes till it combines like dough. Transfer the dough in a plate and let it cool down.

Once suji cools down completely add grated potato, atta, ajwain, dhaniya powder, jeera powder, haldi powder, kasuri meethi, amchur powder, grated ginger, salt and chili and some handful freshly chopped coriander leaves. Mix everything well and make a dough.

Cover and let it rest for 5-10 minutes in fridge. If dough is too loose add some more atta.

Now take golf sized ball from the dough and coat it well in dry atta. Roll the dough with very light hands to give PARANTHA shape. It should not be too thin or thick.

Cook parantha with oil or ghee on pan or tawa.

Serve hot with butter or pack in kids school lunch box.
