Methi Paratha with Curd

Methi Paratha with Curd is a flavorful Indian flatbread infused with the goodness of fenugreek leaves, served with creamy curd for a healthy and satisfying meal. This dish is perfect for a light supper, offering both nutrition and taste in every bite.

Ingredients

• Whole wheat flour - 200 grams
• Fresh methi (fenugreek leaves) - 50 grams
• Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Water - as needed (approximately 100-150 ml)
• Oil - 2 tablespoons (for cooking)
• Curd (yogurt) - 150 grams
• Coriander leaves - for garnish (optional)

Steps

1. Wash the fresh methi leaves thoroughly and chop them finely.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, chopped methi leaves, cumin seeds, and salt.
3. Gradually add water to the flour mixture, kneading until a smooth and soft dough forms. Cover it and let it rest for 10 minutes.
4. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
5. On a floured surface, roll out each ball into a circular shape, about 6-7 inches in diameter.
6. Heat a tawa or skillet over medium heat. Cook each paratha, applying a little oil on both sides, until golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
7. Serve the methi parathas hot with a bowl of fresh curd and garnish with chopped coriander leaves if desired.
