Gajar Paratha Recipe: How To Make Gajar Paratha
To begin with, take a large mixing bowl, add grated carrots, wheat flour, ginger, cumin seed powder, chopped green chillies, red chilli powder, chopped coriander leaves and salt to taste. Mix well. Now, add water in small portions to knead a soft dough. (Make sure not to add too much water as the carrot itself will leave water at this stage.)
Now, take a portion out of the dough and roll it nicely. Heat a tawa on medium flame. Cook the paratha evenly from both sides until it becomes golden brown. (Apply a generous amount of ghee or oil while cooking it.) Gajar paratha is ready! Serve hot and enjoy!
