Ingredients
- 300 g wholemeal flour
- 200 g Mooli Daikon radish, grated
- 2 green chillies finely chopped
- 1 tbsp ginger grated
- 1 tbsp Coriander leaves chopped
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- salt to taste
- oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the wholemeal flour and a pinch of salt.
- Slowly add water and knead until you have a smooth and firm dough. Cover and set aside for 15 minutes to rest.
- In another bowl, mix together the grated mooli, chopped green chillies, grated ginger, chopped coriander leaves, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, and salt to taste. Set aside.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls.
- Roll out each ball into a small circle, place a portion of the mooli filling in the center, and seal the edges to enclose the filling.
- Roll out each stuffed ball gently into a flatbread, ensuring the filling is evenly distributed.
- Heat a non-stick pan or tava over medium heat.
- Place a rolled-out paratha onto the hot pan and cook until bubbles start to appear on the surface.
- Flip the paratha and brush some oil on top. Cook until golden brown spots appear on both sides, pressing lightly with a spatula to ensure even cooking.
- Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls and filling.
- Serve hot with yogurt, pickle, or any chutney of your choice.

Notes
- For a healthier option, you can use wholemeal flour for the dough.
- Adjust the quantity of green chillies and red chilli powder according to your spice preference.
- Ensure the mooli filling is well-drained to prevent the parathas from becoming soggy.
- These parathas are best enjoyed fresh and hot off the pan.
