Plain Paratha



This is layerd flat indian bread made to enjoy with curry. This paratha often made with ghee (clarified butter). Some prefer it with oil also. But this tastes so good with ghee and any saag, specially in winters. Crispy outside and soft inside. This is eay healthy than any naan or kulcha, because it is made out of wheat flour. Every indian house eat this on a daily basis. Paratha or any flatbread made out of wheat flour is a staple food in india and some other asian countries.
Next time if you get an alternative to naan, then do try this healthy and easy to digest paratha. And no, this is not gluten free because wheat is not necessarily gluten free. So if you are allergic then try other flatbreads.
Happy eating!

Kala means black. Dry cocon...

Mirch ke Tipore

                      Mirchi ke Tipore, basically less spicy green pepper's side dish. This is one of the most favorite side dish even my 6 year old loves a lot. So you can guess the hotness of the peppers.                         This dish I came across when I was scrolling through some random videos. Name itself is so catchy so I started my search. After watching tons of recipe video and talking to my mom I figured out the authentic recipe and it was a real hit. It can be a delicious option to any boring day when you don't feel like cooking lengthy 4 course meal. Few easily available spices like funnel seeds, cumin seeds, dry mango powder, salt, red chilli (paprika) powder, lemon juice, and oil. Just roast all seeds and coarsely grind it. Heat oil add all powder with turmeric, red pepper, asafetida, dry mango powder and add freshly cut chillis. Mix it and cook it just for...
