Parathas are thicker flat bread which may or may not be stuffed. These are spinach parathas where the greens are kneaded into the dough. Parathas can be made in several ways. There is the flaky lachha paratha, circle paratha, square paratha, and many more.

The spinach dough can also be used to make stuffed flatbread. Stuff it with cauliflower or potato filling (find the filling recipes in my book). And use it as a side, use these as Spinach tortillas, or use to make burritos. Use other greens for variation. These parathas are a great breakfast stuffed with scramble or a side to saucy Indian Mains. This recipe was in the book too, but luckily for you all, we had to bump a few to fit the book in the pages 🙂 . If you are looking for gluten-free flatbreads, find 3 gluten-free, yeast-free flatbread recipes in my book –Vegan Richa’s Indian Kitchen. You can use spinach puree in any of them instead of the liquid used. Or use half spinach puree and half sweet potato in this gluten-free Sweet Potato flatbread.
