Palak Roti Recipe is a simple and healthy roti recipe made with spinach leaves and wheat flour/atta. The palak roti or palak chapati is an excellent breakfast dish and it is most popular across North India. I love to make parathas or rotis as they are quite healthy and tasty too. They can be made by stuffing any vegetable and can be eaten plain without any side dish.
Various roti or paratha recipes on the blog are missi roti, parotta can be checked.
This punjabi recipe is another roti recipe for my blog readers after I shared few flat bread recipes like jowar roti recipe and soft phulka recipe...
The spinach roti is simply made by adding chopped spinach leaves and some spices to the wheat flour, kneading the dough by adding little water and roasting the roti with ghee or oil or butter.
There are various ways in which palak can be used and palak ki roti is something that can be made in no time and a very healthy option for breakfast recipes...
I love to use green leafy vegetables as a stuffing for rotis and they taste awesome...
Palak paratha is another version of palak roti where spinach is pureed and added to the dough and I would be glad enough to update with it as I keep blogging with time...
Making stuffed roti recipes is much preferable to making plain rotis and one should include all kinds of recipes in our diet from vegetarian to non-vegetarian and healthy too...
Palak is such a wonderful green leafy vegetable that it can be used to make several recipes out of it and today I am sharing an easy and quick to do palak roti as a good option for breakfast and a great punjabi recipe...
