Broccoli Aloo Paratha Recipe | Vegetarian | Broccoli Recipe | Flavour Diary

Paratha is famous flatbread from India and South Asia,which is eaten anytime of the day . These breads can be stuffed with veg or non veg or simply with sugar (sweet paratha). For a amateur cook, Stuffing a paratha perfectly comes with practice but it's easy to get a hand on it.But they are super yummy so don't miss to practice it.

Today's paratha came to my mind just on a fly as i was planning to make aloo paratha for dinner but when i found broccoli in the fridge and was not at all in a mood to have this for atleast 2 or 3 days...so i thought why not i include this in aloo paratha and tada here come Broccoli Aloo Paratha...this became a hit in family...Usually my hubby never gives any feedback whether it's good or bad...but this paratha made it...he asked how i made this,it's yum (kaisey banaya bahut accha hai)...felt happy.
