Green Parathas

Looking at all the greens I had purchased, got the thought of trying a new dish. It turned out super tasty with the one thing I love......green chillies !! I don't need any other accompaniment then :) I used Spinach for the colour, Green Sorrel for the acidity, Dil for the aromatic aspect, Fenugreek for the taste, crushed Green chilli for the heat, fresh coriander for more greenery and punch.

Ingredients
1/2 cup finely chopped spinach
1/2 cup finely chopped fenugreek leaves
1/2 cup green sorrel
1/2 cup fresh chopped coriander
1 table spoon full of crushed greeen chilli
1/2 tspoon carrom seeds roughly crushed
Salt to taste
1 table spoon of oil
Water for mixing the dough
3 cups of wheat flour for making dough

Method
In a mixing bowl put all the above ingredients, mixing wheat flour bit by bit taking care to see that there is more green than flour, now add water to make a dough like a chapati dough. Put little oil over the ready dough, mix and leave it to rest for 15 minutes. Now heat a tava, roll out the parathas and roast them sprinkled with clarified butter, till done on both sides. I made the green chillies with spices, rolled them in parathas as shown in the picture and enjoyed them.
