Spring onion parota


Spring onions are rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin B2, Vitamin A, Vitamin K and thiamine. They are low in calories and high on dietary fibre.  100gm of spring onion greens provides just 31 calories. Hence, it is included in raw form in salads and vegetable dressings. In cooked form too it tastes great. It is added to the fried dumpling dough (vada dough) to give the flavour of onion. Here, I have tried to make a mildly spiced flat bread using spring onion.

Ingredients:
Whole wheat flour - 2cups
Chopped spring onion greens -1 cup
Green chillies -2 (finely chopped)
Turmeric powder -1/2 tsp
Salt and oil - As required

Method:
Combine everything except oil. Add water little by little and make soft dough. Rest the dough for few seconds.  Divide it into equal balls. Roll each one of them into round flat breads. Heat a griddle and cook them on both sides using little oil. Serve hot with curd.
