1. Upgrade Your Dough

Use multigrain flour instead of regular atta and knead it with dahi. This makes the dough softer & adds probiotics that are great for digestion.

 2. Keep the Stuffing Simple

Skip the boiled potatoes-they're not always the healthiest option. Just chop and boil the bathua leaves, then mix them directly into the flour while kneading.

3. Stick to Desi Ghee

Using desi ghee to toast your parathas is a great way to include healthy fats. You can also add a little ghee while kneading the dough for extra flavour and softness.
