A sumptuous rajgira paratha recipe that is sure to satiate you even on a fasting day! Learn how to make rajgira paratha recipe | rajgira roti | amaranth vrat paratha | gluten free paratha |
Here in amaranth vrat paratha, wholesome rajgira parathas are served along with curd which makes a perfect meal during fasting days. What makes this upvas ka paratha very appealing is that the rotis are made of a dough of rajgira flour and potatoes, which gives these gluten free paratha a unique texture that is soft yet crisp.
Rajgira flour combines beautifully with potatoes in these peppery rajgira roti. The potatoes ensure that the parathas remain soft. Serve these parathas with spicy green chutney and curd.
Tips to make rajgira paratha: 1. Add water to knead dough gradually, as even a slightly soft dough might make rolling difficult. 2. Rolling semi-soft rajgira dough is also slightly difficult. It needs a little practice. We suggest you roll with a thin rolling pin and with light pressure. 3. Is it possible to make rajgira roti without the potatoes? No it wont be possible, as it needs potatoes to bind. You can use any other starch vegetables.
