Mix Vegetable Parantha

mix vegetable parantha for breakfast

Paranthas are a quintessential breakfast in north India, especially Punjab and Delhi.

Being a Punjabi, I have a fondness for paranthas, though I try to make low-calorie paranthas, using least amount of oil, instead of clarified butter. Anyway, I add oats and ragi flour to wheat flour to knead my daily dough for rotis and paranthas.

This time I added finely chopped carrot, capsicum, peas, ginger and sprouts to the dough and made mix veg paranthas. These Indian flat bread rotis are healthier form of paranthas and taste great. I enjoyed these with sweet amla chutney.

Ingredients
wheat flour - 1 cup
ragi flour - 1/4 cup
Oatmeal (powder)- 1/4 cup
salt,
oil
Ginger grated
carom seeds (ajwain)
Chopped Vegetables of your choice (carrot, capsicum, peas, cauliflower, methi)

Procedure

Mix everything and make a semi-soft dough.
Let it sit for 10 minutes.
Roll out into chapatis or paranthas.
Fry using little oil/ghee on either side or both sides. I usually apply oil only on one side.
Enjoy with pickle or curd or even ginger tea.

Soaking turns pumpkin seeds water green | Is it SAFE?

Pumpkin seeds cause water to develop a green tint mainly because they contain chlorophyll, the natural pigment that gives plants their green color. This phenomenon occurs through several interconnected processes that involve the seed's cellular structure and pigment composition. Raw pumpkin seeds, particularly the hulled green varieties commonly known as pepitas, contain significant amounts of chlorophyll. This is the same compound responsible for photosynthesis in plants and creates the distinctive green appearance in leaves, stems, and other plant tissues. The chlorophyll concentration in pumpkin seeds is naturally high since these seeds develop within the green interior of the pumpkin. When pumpkin seeds are soaked in water, their cellular walls begin to soften and break down gradually. This process allows water molecules to penetrate the seed structure and extract various compounds, including pigments. Although chlorophyll isn't completely water-soluble in its pure chemica...
