What Ingredients do I Need for Mooli Paratha?

  • 1 cup Radish, Elongate, White Skin ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 tsp Chillies, Green - All Varieties ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 cup Wheat Flour, Atta ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 tbsp Ghee ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 tsp Turmeric Powder ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 tsp Red chili powder ( fresh ) - default
  • 1 tsp Cumin powder ( fresh ) - default

Instructions: How to Make Mooli Paratha

  • Prep the Dough and Filling
    Knead soft dough using whole wheat flour (atta), water, and salt; let it rest. Grate the radish (mooli) finely. Crucially, squeeze out all the excess water from the radish to prevent the paratha from tearing.
  • Season, Stuff, and Roll
    Mix the squeezed radish with chopped coriander leaves, green chili, ginger, and spices (salt, red chili powder, and dry mango powder/amchoor). Take a ball of dough, create a cup, place the dry filling inside, seal the edges, and gently roll into a flat circular paratha.
  • Cook the Paratha
    Cook the rolled paratha on a preheated tawa (griddle) over medium heat. Once it starts to puff, flip it, apply a light coat of oil or ghee on both sides, and press lightly with a spatula until it is golden-brown and cooked through. Serve hot with pickle or curd.
