Paratha is a popular flatbread in India with many variations. It is either plain or stuffed with some vegetable. I got addicted to making stuffed parathas for breakfast during my good old days in Delhi. hot parathas topped with loads of butter served with some curd and pickles is like my perfect breakfast any given day. Preparing parathas is easy and you can always make it more healthy by using minimum butter. I made some radish parathas today . Some people avoid eating radish as it causes gas and gives you a bloated feeling. So, I usually add some carom seeds (ajwain) in these parathas to help in digestion. So, sharing a step-wise recipe and hope you all enjoy your day.
