I wish all my readers a great Deepavali / Diwali!
Check out my Deepavali treats that we made.
For today's Marathon post, it was a simple paratha with Masoor dal. Konda had it for her breakfast and liked it a lot.
Parathas are always a great hit with kids. You can use anything that's leftover and mix it into the atta to make parathas. These are ideal dishes for packing for a kid's lunch box. I normally make with aloo, paneer, dal etc. You can just about add anything to the flour and make parathas. Serve with curds and pickles. My daughter prefers this to other lunch boxes.
Other dishes you can make with leftovers Seya Pav, Leftover Chapati Pizza, Leftover Rice Pakodas, Cheesy Leftover Mashed Potato Pancakes






I used Masoor ki Dal
Take wheat flour, add the dal. You will need to add extra chili powder, salt, and cumin powder as the dal will be bland when you use it later.
Knead to a stiff dough.
Heat a tawa. Roll out as parathas. Since kids like small rotis, I used a mold to cut out smaller parathas.
Cook on greased tawa on both sides and serve!

Very healthy parathas. I am sure just a bowl of curd is sufficient as a side dish..
