Instructions for Ragi Tawa Paratha - Healthy Vitamin Rich & Diabetic Friendly Paratha

    1

    To begin making the Healthy Ragi Tawa Paratha Recipe, in a large bowl combine the ragi flour, whole wheat flour salt and knead adding little water at a time to make firm and smooth dough.

    2

    Add one tablespoon of oil to coat the ragi tawa paratha dough and knead again. Cover and set the paratha dough aside for 15 minutes.

    3

    Divide the dough into 8 portions. Preheat the iron skillet over medium heat.

    4

    Roll the dough portions into balls and flatten them with the palm of your hand. Toss them on flour and roll them out into circles of approximately 3 inches in diameter. Put 1/4 teaspoon oil and spread it on the rolled dough.

    5

    We need to get a triangle shape, to do so, first fold into a semi-circle, then fold the semi-circle into half again. You get a mini triangle shape.

    Tossing the triangle on a little flour, roll it out gently into a larger triangle. Continue the same process of rolling with the remaining ragi tawa paratha portions.

    7

    With skillet on medium high heat, place one rolled out ragi tawa paratha on the skillet. After a few seconds you will notice an air pockets popping out.

    8

    At this point flip the Ragi Tawa Paratha and smear about 1/2 a teaspoon of ghee. Using a flat spatula do a light pressing and turning motion to cook to the tawa paratha.

    Flip to the other side and press and turn the Ragi Tawa Paratha in a similar way. You will notice brown spots around the paratha and it will be slightly crisp. Remove from heat and place on a platter or serve hot.

    10

    Continue the similar process with the remaining rolled portions and stack the cooked Ragi Tawa Paratha one above the other and serve hot.
