Cabbage paratha is a unique breakfast recipe that combines cabbage and various flours. It is crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and bears resemblance to the popular Maharashtrian dish thalipeeth. Typically, it is served with plain yogurt or curd, accompanied by either tomato sauce or pickle as a side dish. Enjoy this nutritious and flavorful dish as a wholesome meal or snack. Give it a try!
The key to making tasty cabbage paratha at home are
- Firstly, ensure you use fresh cabbage for the paratha. You can either finely chop the cabbage using a knife or use a food processor to achieve the desired consistency. I personally prefer using the pulse grinding function in a mixture jar for convenience.
- Secondly, cabbage paratha is a versatile dish that allows for creativity. Feel free to incorporate additional ingredients such as grated carrots, spinach, or spices of your choice to enhance its nutritional value and taste.
- Lastly, when cooking the paratha, it’s important to maintain a medium flame. This allows the paratha to become crispy and golden brown on both sides while ensuring it is thoroughly cooked from the inside. Avoid cooking it on high flame, as it may remain raw within. It tastes great when it is serve hot.
