CHEMBU PARATHA

colacasia, chembu, arbi or taro root it is known as normally we put in sambhar or make subzi out of it.  We can fry them also to make chips out of it.  I tried paratha  and it came out well.  I am sharing the delicious paratha with you all so that you can also try this for a change.






Let us look at the recipe now:

Ingredients:

5-6 arbi
2 tbsp palak
2 tbsp coriander leaves chopped
1/2 tsp ginger paste
1/2 tsp garlic paste
1 tsp green chilli paste
2 tbsp gram flour (besan)
3/4 to 1 cup wheat flour
a generous pinch of ajwain
a generous pinch of asafoetida
1/2 tsp kalonji
salt
ghee or oil for cooking paratha

Method:

Boil the arbi, remove skin and mash it well or grate it.  mix all other ingredients except kalonji and oil. add water as required and make a dough.

divide the dough into equal parts and roll out the paratha.  You can also make triangle paratha.  spread some kalonji on the paratha while rolling.

Heat tava spread some oil and cook the paratha till golden brown from both the sides.

How to serve:

serve with pickle, curd, any curry, sauce as you like.

NOTE:  spice adjust according to your taste.
