Cabbage Paratha

Does just changing the visibility settings for picasa albums change the urls for the images leading it to broken urls?! OMG I faced a really challenging task of reverting back all the urls(for almost 230 posts) again for each post, spent around 5 full long hours yest evening to fix up this as I cudnt see the site with broken images. Has anyone faced this issue?! If please let me know how you solved the issue.

Packing dinner for hubby is a mind puzzling task thats when I started trying different types of parathas as they are sure to keep well for a long period of time. As cabbage is his fav veggie, with no doubt he loved the parathas. I cant even stand the slightest raw smell of the veggie, but he loves eating raw cabbage. Still I sauted the cabbage till raw smell leaves just for my sake :)
Cabbage Paratha Recipe


Cabbage Paratha Recipe
Makes around 8-10 parathas

Ingredients:
  • Cabbage - 3/4 cup (grated/chopped finely)
  • Wheat flour - 1.5 cups
  • Garam Masala powder - 1/2 tsp (optional)
  • Chilli powder - 1 tsp
  • Turmeric powder - a generous pinch
  • Coriander Leaves - 1 tbsp finely chopped
  • Oil - as required
  • Salt - as required

Cabbage Paratha Recipe
Method:
1. Heat a pan, add 1/2 tsp oil add the cabbage and saute well until it shrinks and raw smell leaves

2. Then in a bowl add wheat flour, salt, garam masala powder, chilli powder and turmeric powder, coriander leaves, and sauted cabbage mix well and add water little by little and knead to a soft dough.Leave it aside for 15-30mins.

3. Divide the dough into equal portions and then make small lemon sized balls and roll them into slightly thin parathas or as shown below as square parathas.

4. Heat tawa add the rolled parathas add oil, cook on both sides until golden brown spots appear.
Serve hot with pickles or curd.

To be frank I am comfortable in getting the square shape better than the circles :) Hope that looks squares to u all too :)

Cabbage Paratha Recipe
My Notes:
  • Sauting cabbage is purely optional but I recommend doing it as however finely grated it gives a raw smell when added without sauting.
  • You can add ghee to cook the parathas for kids. You can also make it stuffed and roll it like we do for aloo parathas. But I prefer this as its messfree :)
  • Cabbage will also leave water so be very careful in adding water, so add little by little.
  • You can skip garam masala and also add a tsp of sambar powder.
  • Folding and rolling the paratha in square shape makes the paratha very soft.

This is sure a easy way to make kids eat veggies as when folden in parathas it not only makes the parathas soft but tasty too.

i was planning on making cabbage parathas for dinner too! but i make them a little differently - more along the lines of mooli paratha. This is easier though. I don't have to make a stuffing or anything. And thank you for the idea of rolling square parathas. My pre-school daughter will be very excited about her dinner :)

Suma Gandlur said...

I keep trying all the veggies possible to create colorful parathas for my daughter's lunch box and this is one of those. I use raw, grated cabbage though.
Like the envelope shaped rotis, that's what I call them somehow.
