Prepare the Dough

  • Combine whole wheat flour, horse gram flour, turmeric powder, pav bhaji masala, chopped spring onions, red chili, and salt in a large bowl.

  • Cover the dough and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

Roll and Cook the Parathas

  • Divide the dough into 6 equal-sized balls.
  • Roll each ball into a thin circle using a rolling pin.
  • Heat a lightly oiled tawa (griddle) over medium heat.
  • Cook each paratha for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through, brushing with a little extra oil if needed.

Serve

  • Serve the Horse Gram and Spring Onion Parathas hot with raita or your favorite curry.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Parathas

  • For a softer paratha, add a tablespoon of yogurt to the dough.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time.
  • Don't overcrowd the tawa; cook the parathas in batches to ensure even cooking.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor of your parathas.
