Known as Navalkol in hindi and marathi and as Kholrabi in english is a type of turnip . It can be cooked in various ways .
Navalkol sabji tastes very delicious .
Navalkol slices smeared with selected spices and shallow fried also taste very yummy .
The leaves of this turnip can also be cooked as sabji .
But most of the people who don't like leafy vegetables much tend to throw these leaves which are actually very rich in vitamins and minerals .
So today I tried making parathas of these leaves instead of sabji which turned out very tasty .
Even kids will enjoy these parathas in their tiffins .
Ingredients -
2 cups - navalkol leaves ( washed and chopped fine )
2 /3 cups - wheat flour
1 tbsp - ginger chilly paste
1 tsp - cumin coriander powder
1tsp - amchur ( dry mango powder )
1/2 tsp - turmeric powder
1 tbsp oil
salt as per taste .
Method -
In a vessel take the chopped leaves .
Add to it all the masalas , salt and mix well .
Now add the wheat flour and knead a soft yet firm dough .
Add water while kneading only if needed as the water in leaves is usually enough for kneading .
Keep aside for 10 minutes .
Roll medium sized parathas thick or thin as per your liking .
Serve hot smeared with ghee and with pickle and curd .
These parathas can even be gived to kids and adults in tifiin .
