Using leftover Dal to make paranthas? Here are a few things you should add to your dough to make your paranthas softer and flavourful 🤗 I always make a big pot of lentils and curries, firstly to save me some leftovers but most importantly cos they taste even yummier the next day 🥰 Sharing my little tips that I’ve learnt over a period of time to uplift the parantha game 🤩

What’s cooking? Dal paranthas paired with दही, मखन & अचार 💗 The idea of using leftover Dal for paranthas isn’t new, it’s been there since ages and for sure a delicious way to turn one dish into two meals #leftovermakeover 😇 Here is a list of little ingredients that you can add to the dough along with leftover Dal for some extra dose of magic. I prefer using arhar/toor & yellow moong dal for my paranthas 🙂
.

*Dahi / Yogurt / Curd
*Besan (gram flour)
*Spoonful of Ghee/Oil 
*Boiled mashed potato 
*Freshly chopped cilantro
*Frozen/Fresh methi leaves 
*Chopped onions + green chili 
*Cumin & Ajwain seeds (carom)
*Salt, turmeric, red chili + coriander powder 
.
.
Combine everything in a big bowl, gently mash everything with your fingers to begin kneading a dough - water is usually not needed cos Dal & Dahi helps in combining, but you can add some as it would depend on the quantity of flour - let the dough rest for 10 mins covered with a wet paper towel/cloth - gently splash a little water on the dough if it’s too dry or solid, knead with wet hands until smooth and combined.
