Hi all🙋🏻,
RECIPE:
FOR TAMATAR KE PARATHE:
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups wheat flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ajwain or caraway seeds
2 tsp ghee or clarified butter
2 medium sized diced tomatoes
Handful of finely chopped coriander leaves
Oil or clarified butter for cooking paratha
METHOD:
Take tomatoes in a grinder jar. Grind until puréed finely.In a deep bowl add flour, salt and caraway seeds. Mix well.Add ghee and rub the flour until slighted crumbly it appears.Add leaves and tomato purée.Knead well just like we do for paratha. If purée is left, you can use further or if required, add water to make soft and smooth dough.Now heat a skillet or tava.Divide the dough into equal balls. I made 9 parathas out of this dough.
FOR PALAK PANEER:
INGREDIENTS:
3 bundles of palak or spinach…cleaned and washed.. chopping not required
1 tsp each of ginger garlic paste
1 tsp salt … further you can use more to adjust the seasoning. Palak has natural salt too.. so be careful while adding seasoning
1/4 cup oil or ghee.. I have used mustard oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
2-3 pinches hing or asafoetida
2 big sized julienned onions
2 very big sized tomatoes.. chopped finely
1 tsp garam masala powder
1 tsp red Kashmiri chilli powder
Paneer cubes of 1.5 ltr full cream milk… I have used homemade ones… never buy from store
METHOD :
Take palak in a pressure cooker. Add salt and ginger garlic paste. No need to add water as palak itself has high water content. Close the lid and give one whistle at high flame. Switch the stove now.By the time pressure being released, heat oil in a deep pan. Add cumin seeds. Let it splutter. Add hing. Wait for 2-3 seconds.Now add julienned onions and fry until golden pink. Now add chopped tomatoes. Add 2 pinches of salt. Cook them at medium flame until tomatoes get softened and oil releases.By the time take the cooked palak in a grinder jar. Don’t pour the stock of palak. Keep it aside. Give 2-3 pulses until palak is coarsely grinded. I like in this way. If you wish for more puréed form, give 2-3 pulses more. You can use the stock for kneading flour or making soup.
