KOTHMIR PARATHA, CORIANDER LEAVES PARATHA

Like any other parathas, coriander leaves paratha is also very tasty and healthy.  When the same is available in abundance, I always make use of the same for making parathas otherwise also I make it.  It is a simple preparation with the masalas you want to add to the wheat flour.

I never make the stuffed parathas as my children won't like it.   It is always mixed with the flour and the paratha is made at home.
