Mouli Paratha Recipe

Whole Wheat Flat Breads Filled with Seasoned, Grated Radish

In a bowl, combine by hand:

1 cup fresh grated daikon radish (squeeze the moisture out)

1 Tablespoon fresh coriander leaves (cilantro), chopped

1 teaspoon cumin/coriander powder

1 teaspoon hot red pepper powder

1/2 teaspoon garam masala

1/2 teaspoon salt

Prepare a dough by mixing together:

2 cups Indian whole wheat flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 Tablespoon vegetable oil

about 3/4 cup warm water (enough for a kneadable dough)

Using one of the following two methods, prepare the paratha:

Method I: Divide the dough into 16 pieces. Roll out 2 pieces into 4 1/2" disks. Layer 1-2 Tablespoons of the radish mixture between the two rounds, and carefully roll out to 6" in diameter. Repeat for the remaining pieces.

Method II: Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll out each piece into a 6" disk. Place 1-2 Tablespoons of the radish mixture in the center of each disk, draw up the edges to the center and pinch; then carefully roll out to 6" in diameter again.

Place each paratha on a dry griddle, and brown both sides. Then paint each side with a small amount of oil (or ghee), and briefly brown again on both sides.
