Mooli/Radish paratha...step by step.


This is another of my favorite paratha which I make often......my mom-in-law taught me to make this.....I got some pinkish-reddish mooli this time though it is the white ones that is usually see here in Calicut....now what's the benefit of methi paratha, mooli paratha, aloo paratha etc...it includes roti as well as vegetables in one go.

How I made them:
Ingredients:
Mooli red or white: 1/2 kg grated.
Chilly powder: 1/2 to 1 tsp.
Jeera: 1/4 tsp.
Coriander leaves: A bunch chopped.
Salt to taste.
Whole wheat flour: 1 cup (salt and water as needed).


Method:
1. Grate mooli and keep aside.

2. Heat  1 tsp oil in a pan and put in jeera, when it cracks switch off the fire and put in the red chilly powder and put in the grated mooli. Again switch on the fire, mix well add salt and let it cook till the water evaporates and when it is dry, switch off fire and sprinkle chopped coriander leaves and let it cool.

3. In a bowel put in whole wheat flour, a pinch of salt, and the cooked mooli....mix well wetting hands with water. Roll into a dough and keep aside.

4. Divide the dough into small equal sized balls and roll out each one.

5. Heat a tawa and cook both sides and drizzle ghee on both sides.

6. Serve hot with raita/achar.

    That was indeed a very tragic story.
    My mum uses the mooli filling as a stuffing but this version is also quite good and easy.

Pidiyum Kozhiyum Recipe - How To Make Kerala Style Kozhi Pidi - Kerala Recipes

Pidiyum kozhiyum or kottayam style pidi is a traditional knanaya cuisine ; these rice dumpling have a thick gravy like sauce, unlike the dry versions of Malabar kakka roti or kozhi pidi. Knanaya style pidi is served with varutharacha kozhi curry. Traditionally, pidi is associated with baby shower ie when the daughter-in-law is sent to her parents house for delivery, it is customary for the mother-in-law to make kozhi pidi and we knanaya people still follow these traditions. My main aim is to preserve this recipe; so that the future generations can enjoy this wholesome dish. Pidi is rice dumplings which is simmered in water along with shallots, garlic, curry leaves, and coriander seeds; but I have used coriander powder instead to make the whole process easy.
