Avocado is a very healthy fruit with abundant nutrients and vitamins. Avocados can help in lower cholesterol and loaded with fiber content. Avocado also helps in weight reduction and also rich in anti oxidants. I tried making avocado parathas with spices , that are tasty and also make it easy to consume the fruit as they are little bland in taste.
Preparation Time : Under 15 minutes
Cooking Time: Under 15 minutes
Yields -3 to 4 no.s of paratha
INGREDIENTS:
Avocado - 1/2 cup mashed
Wheat flour -3/4 cup
Salt - as required
Cumin powder -1 teaspoon
Red chilli powder -1/2 teaspoon
Green chilli - 1 finely chopped
Lemon juice - few drops
Oil - for making parathas.
METHOD:
1. Take ripened avocado. Do not use unripened avocado. It taste bitter. Usually, when u buy avocado they are unripened ones. Keep it at home in room temperature for 3 to 5 days, till the outside layer turns black and when you touch the fruit, it is soft.
2. Now peel the skin, chop the avocado in small pieces. Take about 1/2 cup of chopped avocados. Remaining , refrigerate it and use in another 1 or 2 days, else the fruit would get spoiled as it is already ripened. Now add lemon juice,salt, red chilli powder,cumin powder,green chilli. Mix all the contents and using a back of wooden ladle mash the contents well. Also add 1 teaspoon of oil.
2. Now add 3/4 cup wheat flour. Mix it with the above paste. Do not add water. Avocado itself has enough water. If you feel the dough is too dry , you can sprinkle some water. Not more than that. Allow the dough to rest for another 15 minutes.
3. Now take lemon sized dough and flatten them as rotti using rolling pin.
4. Heat tawa and cook paratha on both sides by adding some oil. Tasty avocado parathas are ready!. Serve with curd and pickle or any vegetable curry of your choice !.
