You can make palak roti/paratha in similar fashion,alternatively adding little bit of ginger-garlic paste, which also enhances the taste.Another healthier option like meethi.

Hi,
I would like to suggest u to try to add one mashed potato while kneading the dough, it will come out more crispy and soft. and some crushed garlic also as per your taste.

hi shilpa,

To reduce the bitterness of methi leaves, knead half ripe banana and 2 spn gud, jeera powder, salt, red chilli pwder and handful of yellow dudhi (grated) and mash well with a stell glass. add methi leaves and wheat flour and methi leaves to make a dough. The banana leaves the parathas soft and dudhi makes it sweet too. you can try this version

Hi..
I have a small doubt regarding this recipe.Do v have to boil/cook the methi leaves before adding them to the dough?Wont they stick out of the paratha otherwise?

Squeezing water out of the leaves will loose all the nutrients…

I think if you will use fresh green chilis instead of red chili powder the taste will be more good. One more thing that if you put methi leaves chopped or unchapped in salted water and squeeze them it means you are taking out methi leaves’s nutriants. Think about it. The response from Aparna about this paratha is the best way to eat tasty methi paratha. In that you can also try some amount of Jawar flour and Kalana ( mixture of whole black urad dal, jawar and v. small amt. of methi seeds) flour to make it more tasty

Shilpa ,ur recipe is good.
I usually make methi parathas this way.
1.I cut the methi finely.
2.Then i make a paste of fresh coriander leaves,green chilli and ginger.
3.Add methi leaves,paste to the wheat flour.Add salt,ajwain and jeera to the wheat flour.
4.Heat some oil and add this to wheat flour.
5.Finally make the dough and leave it for some time.
Then finally make the parathas.
It always came out well.Please try it.
