Method

                          Mix the flours,salt,oil and add water,knead it to a soft and smooth dough with water.Keep it covered with a damp cloth for 1/2 hour.
Meanwhile prepare the filling by boiling the channa dhal in a pressure cooker for a whistle or a open pot till it is tender.Drain the water and coarsely grind it in a blender or mash it with a masher,keep aside.
Keep a pan in a medium flame and crackle the cumin seeds then add green chilles and ginger.Saute the onion till transparent with a pinch of salt.
Now add the salt,turmeric powder and garam masala powder,stir it then ground channa dhal,and give it a mix.Finally add the coriander leaves and turn off the stove.The filling is ready.
Divide the dough and the filling into equal portions,flatten the dough to a 3 inch disc and keep the stuffing in it.Gently pull the edges to the center,seal it and flatten it.Now on a floured surface, roll each flattened ball gently to a desired thickness.
Heat a griddle on a medium flame and cook the parathas both sides.
Serve it with pickle and yogurt.
Enjoy.....

  • Ginger and garlic paste can be added for extra taste and flavor.
  • A tsp of carom seeds can be mixed in the flour while making the dough which gives a nice aroma and aids digestion.
  • Amchur powder can also be added for extra tangy taste.
  • Dusting it with all purpose flour(maida) helps the rolling easy.

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
