Recently, I have noticed so many breads, biscuits, tortillas etc. all being sold on the market with various flavours. In fact everything seems to be flavoured starting from milk, bread, crisps etc. The flovoured tortilla got me to thinking whether I should flavour the humble chappati we eat nearly every day. Now how does garlic flavoured chappatis sound to you? In fact – I discussed quite a few flavours with my family but they all felt that the simple chappati should remain without flavours BUT they did not mind me experimenting with parathas!! And this is how my Spicy tomato, onion, garlic, ginger, green chillies paratha got created. I did not want to use any artificial flavours to my parathas so I made them using natural ingredients. This dish is also perfect to make when entertaining as you can par cook the parathas and fry them to serve hot to your guests. I made these as an experiment for a friend of mine who was looking for quick and easy recipes to use for a "Come Dine With Me" event he was hosting. Some of you may have seen "Come Dine with me" on the television where 4 people host each other and cook dishes to impress each other and give marks for the food. These parathas were a hit with my family and his guests too. We also made a slightly different variety of parathas using green chutney and I will post that recipe soon.
