Stuffed Mooli Paratha

Stuffed Mooli Paratha step by step instructions:

Radish or Mooli paratha can be made either by stuffing the mooli or making dough out of mooli. Today we will see how to make stuffed paratha from mooli. Mooli has high water content; hence before stuffing, we have to squeeze out the excess water from mooli after grating it.
Few vegetables combined with radish gives an awesome flavor. Do try making “Gajar Mooli Matar” veggie.


Let us start cooking!!!

Servings: Makes 5-6 medium sized parathas

Ingredients:
Radish (Mooli): 2 big (grated)
For the dough
Whole wheat flour: 1 cup
Cumin seeds: ½ tsp
Coriander powder: 1 tsp
Turmeric powder: ¼ tsp
Red chili powder: ½ tsp
Salt as per taste
Ghee for making parathas
Chaat Masala as required

Method:
1. Take the grated mooli and sprinkle some salt upon it. Keep aside for 15-20 min.



2. After 15 minutes squeeze out the excess water by pressing the grated mooli between your palms. Make sure no water content is left. Do not throw away the mooli water; we will be kneading our dough with this water.


3. Prepare the dough. Mix all the ingredients under the dough section. Mix well. Take the mooli water and make a firm dough. Cover it and keep aside. For 1 cup flour, you will require less than half cup mooli water.




4. Take the dough and make 6 equal balls of it.
5. Take one ball. Roll it the size of a puri. Keep the grated mooli in the center of the rolled puri, sprinkle some chaat masala; and fold and seal carefully the circle.




6. Flatten it a bit with the help of your hands.
7. Again dust it with some dry flour and roll it into a bigger circle.



8. Heat tawa. Apply ghee on it.
9. Put the paratha on the tawa and let cook for a minute. Then flip it and let cook on high flame for half minute. Apply ghee on the top and flip again. Similarly, apply ghee on the other side and flip. Cook until brown dots appear on both the sides.





10. Make and cook the remaining parathas also.
11. Serve hot with curd, chutney, ketchup etc.
12. Yummy “Stuffed Mooli Paratha” is ready.

Tips:
1. Keep the dough stiff as mooli tends to lose water. A soft dough will result in stuffing coming out.
2. You can add masala as per your choice to the mooli mixture.
3. While kneading the dough make sure you use the salt wisely as we are using salted mooli water.

See you soon with a new recipe till then Happy Cooking!!!
