To begin making the Palak Paratha recipe, in a large bowl combine all the ingredients and knead adding little water at a time to make firm and smooth dough

Add one tablespoon of oil to coat the dough and knead again

Cover and set aside for 15 minutes

Knead once again and divide the dough into 8 portions

Preheat the iron skillet on medium heat

Roll the dough portions into balls and flatten them with the palm of your hand

Toss them in flour and roll them out into circles of approximately 3 inches in diameter

Drizzle a little ghee and spread it on the rolled dough

We need to get a triangle shape, to do so, first fold into a semi-circle, then fold the semi-circle into half again

You get a mini triangle shape

Tossing the triangle in a little flour, roll it out gently into a big triangle

Continue the same process of rolling with the remaining dough portions

With skillet on medium high heat, place one rolled out palak paratha on the skillet

After a few seconds, you will notice air pockets popping out

At this point flip the palak paratha and smear about 1/2 a teaspoon of ghee

Using a flat spatula do a light pressing and turning motion to cook to the paratha

Flip to the other side and press and turn the paratha in a similar way

You will notice brown spots around the parathas and it will be slightly crisp

Remove from heat and place on a platter or serve hot

Continue the similar process with the remaining rolled portions and stack the cooked paratha one above the other and serve hot

No Oil MethodYou can skip smearing paratha with oil for cooking, instead cook it directly over the flame like Chapati until the paratha is fully cooked from both the sides

Serve the paratha hot with Raita and Chutney

Serve the Palak Paratha for dinner along with Batata Nu Shaak or Baingan Bharta or any other Dry Vegetable or Vegetables in Gravy combination
