मराठीमध्ये वाचण्यासाठी इथे क्लिक करा I made these simple spice parathas today for dinner. They are very easy to make and taste yum. Ingredients 2.5 Cup Wheat Flour 1 Spoon Maida 1/2 Spoon Jeera 1 Spoon Jeera Powder 1/4 Spoon Coriander Powder 1 Spoon Red Chilli Powder 1/4 Spoon Turmeric Powder Salt to taste Oil Method In a plate mix in maida, wheat flour, jeera, jeera powder, coriander powder, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and salt to taste. Add in 2 spoon of oil and mix well. Add water and knead the dough. Sprinkle 1 spoon of oil and knead again. Keep aside for at-least 30 minutes. Make lemon sized balls and roll the 3 fold parathas and cook them on the tawa, sprinkling oil. Notes The turmeric gives them awesome yellowish tinge and they look awesome. I also cooked them with very few drops of oil and that helped in retaining the yellow tinge Maida helps getting crisp parathas.

But i had been thinking of making them at home given that they are so simple. Always read about freezing them and keeping them cool before actually frying adding to the preparation time which off course i never had, given a sudden demand of french fries :) So last Saturday i decided to try them without refrigeration and all and worked out fine. So here is the quickest french fries recipe. Ingredients 2 Potatoes Salt to taste Oil Method Peel of the potatoes and cut them in small rectangular pieces. Keep them under running water and wash them thoroughly till the water is clear. Keep them in cold water for 5-10 minutes. Take it out of water and spread them on kitchen towel so that they are dry. Heat oil and fry them till light golden in color. Spread on kitchen towel Just before eating, fry the fries again till golden brown in color
