Masala Paratha

                                                                         
I am posting today a preparation that has been based upon roti( flatbread) but is spiced up with various additives. As usual waiting for your valuable feedback. Best to have this with tea.


Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups Wheat flour
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 tsp Ajwain (carom seeds)
1 tsp Jeera powder (Roasted and ground to powder)
1 tsp dry Pomegranate seeds (anardana)
2 Green chilly, chopped
1/2 tsp Red chilli powder
4-5 Black pepper balls
Fistful dry mint leaves
1/2 Garam powder
2 tbsp Ghee
1 tbsp finely chopped Coriander leaves
Salt to taste


Method:
In a small pan, dry roast pomegranate, pepper balls, jeera  and grind them coarsely in a coffee grinder.
                                                                              
 In a mixing bowl add flour, dry roasted powder, salt, ghee and all the above ingredients.

Added all the dry spices...

 Mix well, rub ghee into the flour and with little water knead the dough  tight. Keep this aside for 15 minutes. Divide the dough into equal parts and roll them into a round shape. Heat griddle on medium heat and place the masala roti on the griddle. Cook both sides using a little ghee, till both sides are golden brown. 

Serve hot with tea.

Masala roti is delicious. I used to prepare slightly in a differnt way and call that as spicy roti. Seems this is a good alternate for daily roti.
