Pudina Paratha -Indian flat bread flavored with fresh mint leaves
Pudina Paratha- During summer season we get fresh mint in abundance so we try to incorporate these flavorful leaves in so many dishes. Parathas are made in so many flavors and stuffing,but this delicious paratha haves Its own unique fresh flavour so is quite popular in North India and a favorite dish among each restaurant’s menu.
I have seen many people use dry mint powder to make this mint paratha dough but I love to add fresh mint leaves in the mint paratha then the flavor is enhanced but you can also use dry crushed mint leaves if fresh leaves are not easily available.
This Pudina paratha is so delicious that it can be served as it is with a cup of tea. You can also serve this with pickle ,yogurt or chole ,daal makhni or with any rich creamy curry of your choice
