Avocado Paratha

Avocado Paratha| Guacamole Paratha is a healthy variation to plain parathas. I have been posting various rotis and paratha recipes last year. This year so far i have not posted any paratha recipes. So here i have prepared some avocado parathas to update my Rotis and Paratha recipe collection post. Unlike stuffed parathas this is a quick to make easy recipe. Because of the avocados the parathas will be so soft and nutritious.

Actually i bought those avocados to make some drink for this hot summer. Here at home every one has sore thorat and could not make a drink out of it. So the avocados were waiting inside fridge for about a week. Then i was planning for some salad or the other recipes which wont be cold and ended up in making these yummy parathas.

INGREDIENTS:
Whole wheat flour| Atta- 1 and 1/2 cups
Avocado- 2 nos
Lemon juice- 1/2
Green chillies, finely chopped- 1
Garlic,finely chopped- 2 cloves
Coriander leaves, chopped- 2 tablespoons
Roasted jeera powder| ajwain- 1 teaspoon

• Mash well with a potato masher or you can use blender too.

• Add a teaspoon of oil and enough salt for the rotis.
• Now gradually add the atta and knead well to form a dough.
