Mixed Veg Dal Paratha - Low-Calorie Paratha Recipe


Today's recipe under Low-Calorie Veg Recipe is going to be an Indian Bread. When talking about breads, almost all Indian breads are Flatbreads which are made in a Tawa on Tandoor without the addition of leavening agents. This Mixed Veg Dal Paratha is a regular on our weekdays' menu. It is packed with lot of veggies together with moong dal and is a Complete meal by itself. You don't have to spend time for making a side-dish. Just a plain curd or pickle would go well with this Paratha. I find it very easy to make for busy weeknights. Pick veggies of your choice and make variations with different legumes for variety in flavours. Do remember not to add too much Dal as it makes the Paratha dough sticky.

Amritsari Aloo Kulcha | Stuffed Kulcha



Kulcha is a typical Punjabi dish and one of the many flatbreads which are popular in North India. Among those, Amritsar is famous for the best Kulchas. As Kulchas are made with maida, they are very soft in texture and can be made in a Tandoor or a Tawa. When I was going through Pavani's blog, I bumped into this Amritsari Aloo Kulcha recipe and as I had not made Kulchas earlier, wanted to give it a try. I was impressed that her recipe made use of atta and maida in equal proportion which made it more healthy. Stuffing and preparation is similar to Aloo Paratha, but Kulchas make use of Baking soda and curd as leavening agent. It came out very well and we relished with 'Paneer Butter Masala' which made it even more richer.
