Leftover Dal Recipe - Dal Paratha

Last night ended up with more than needed daal and didn't want to eat the same thing again......so this morning thought of bundling up a few ingredients together with dal and came up with DAL PARATHA. It is healthy and delicious....try it!!!!

Ingredients:

Leftover Dal (Any dal :-)
Atta - as needed to make a firm dough
Salt as per taste
Oil to fry the parathas
Coarse Grind the following ( 2-3 seconds on a mixer!! not more than that else it will turn into a paste)
Onion -1
Ginger - 1/2"
Garlic - 10-12 (you can use less if you don't like the smell...i love it so I end up putting even more:-)
Green Chillies - 3-4

Method:

In the left over daal, mix all the other ingredients and make a dough firm enough to be rolled ( don't add too much atta as it will loose its taste). Now divide the dough into big balls, not the regular roti one, much bigger - probably like an orange. Now heat a tawa. Roll the balls into round parathas using a rolling pin and put it on the tawa. Fry using oil till black spots appear on both sides (Fry them using a flat spatula and keep  pressing it against the parathas for them to be fried well)  .

Serve hot parathas with curd.
