Everyone loves parathas. It is that one wholesome dish that gives you the taste of roti as well as sabzi. There are many types of parathas including aloo paratha, methi paratha, gobi paratha, etc. But here is one paratha in which you can incorporate all types of vegetables. This paratha tastes similar to mixed veg paratha and is one of the best recipes I opt for when I can make breakfast from yesterday’s leftover curries. The curry can be of any vegetable i.e brinjal, lady’s finger or potato. All you need to do is grind vegetable curries, which you know are too hard to knead. Depending on whether the curries are made of red chilli powder or green chilli paste, you need to spice the paratha dough either with red chilli powder or green chilli paste. Once done with grinding, all you need to do is knead ingredients together. So let’s get started. Ingredients: 2 cups wheat Floor 1/2 cup chickpea floor Ground leftover curries Red chilli powder/Green chilli p...
