Cooking is therapeutic...After a long day at the office, you just need to unwind- I pity people, who think cooking is a waste of time. My kitchen is my world and I simply love trying out new combinations just for the fun of it. One such combination is the tofu and sweet corn stuffed parantha/roti (Indian flat bread). Got to admit, I loved this combo and if you are looking for something different, then this is worth a shot!
What do we need?
For stuffing-
In a pan, fry the paranthas till golden brown on both sides. Serve hot with pickle/sauce.
What do we need?
For stuffing-
- crumbled tofu (1 cup)
- 1/2 cup canned sweet corn
- salt
- garam masala (1/2 tsp)
- chilli powder (1/4 tsp)
- oil for mixing
- chopped corriander leaves
- chopped green chillies (optional)
For base/making rotis-
- wheat flour
- water
- salt
How did I put together?
In a bowl, mix wheat flour, water and salt. Knead it to a smooth dough and keep it aside. Use oil to make the dough silky and smooth. Combine all the ingredients listed above for filling. Just ensure that the filling is not soggy or too greasy otherwise it becomes difficult when you make the rotis. Take a small ball of dough and flatten it with a rolling pin. Place around 2 spoons of filling in the middle. Fold the sides with the filling in middle so that it appears as a small pouch. Flatten this pouch to a round shape-
