Recipe Ingredients

  • Wheat flour – 3 cups + For dusting
  • Fresh mint leaves – ¾ cup (Tightly packed)
  • Cumin seeds – 1 tablespoon
  • Carom seeds – 1 teaspoon
  • Green chilly (Minced or chopped) – 1 teaspoon or to taste
  • Black salt – 1 teaspoon
  • White salt – 1 teaspoon or to taste
  • Chaat masala – 1 teaspoon
  • Water – As required to make dough
  • Oil – As required

How to make Pudina Parantha

  • To begin with making these spiced and aromatic mint or pudina paranthas, we need to wash the mint leaves first.
  • Tear these mint leaves roughly and keep aside.
  • Now take a large mixing bowl. Combine all the ingredients including mint leaves, flour, spices and form a soft dough with water. Do not combine oil.
  • Cover this dough with a wet muslin cloth and keep to rest for 10 minutes.
  • After resting, again knead this dough.
  • Make equal size balls (The size of a lemon) from this dough.
  • Now take one ball, flatten slightly and dust with flour. Roll into a small disc, say about 4 inches in diameter.
  • Brush it with oil and fold into semi circle.
  • Again brush with oil and fold. This would give you a quarter or triangle kind of shape.
  • Dust this with flour and roll into a big disc, the same way as you roll for rotis or plain parathas.
  • Place on a hot tawa or griddle. Cook on medium flame or till it changes in color and begins to puff slightly.
  • Brush with oil and flip.
  • Apply some oil on this side as well.
  • Cook on both sides.
  • Transfer to a serving plate and continue making pudina paranthas with the remaining dough.
  • Our spiced mint paratha is now ready. Serve with curries, dal and curd.
