How to Make Special Palak Parathas

• Coarsely crush the garlic flakes.
• Wash the spinach well and put it in boiling water for a couple of minutes.
• Drain out the water and cool the spinach.
• Take the wheat flour in a thali.
• Add it to the spinach, green chillies, onion, garlic, cumin seeds, ajwain, red chillies powder, oil and salt to taste.
• Take just enough water to make a little stiff dough.
• Make dough just before you want to make the parathas as spinach has a lot of water content.
• Divide the dough into equal portions.
