Lauki / Ghiya Pratha ( Bottle Gourd Indian Flat Bread)

I never used to like Bottle Gourd eventually I acquired a taste for it and started having Ghiya sabzi with Onions and tomatoes and yes of course I like these Ghiya Parathas which I made recently these are not on healthy but flavorful as well.The following is the way my mom makes it.

Ingredients :-

1. 2 cups of Wheat Flour
2. 1 tsp salt
3. 3 tbsp Yogurt
4. 2 cups of grated Ghiya/ Bottle Gourd
5. 1 tsp of roasted Cumin seeds
6. 2 tbsp of finely chopped Cilantro
7. 3 cloves of garlic finely crushed
8. 2 green chili finely chopped
9. oil for cooking

Method :-

1. Take a bowl and grated ghiya , Wheat flour ,Yogurt, cumin seeds, green chili , garlic and salt, Knead it into a soft dough.You can add 1 tbsp of oil if the Kneaded dough is too sticky.
2. Keep it aside for 15 minutes
3. Keep the pan/ girdle for heating in the mean time take a small ball of kneaded dough and roll it into a 6'' inch disc as shown in the figure above.
4. Now once the pan is hot transfer this to the pan and let it cook for about 2 minutes.
5. Turn it upside down , you will see small brown spots on it , add around 2-3 drops on the its surface and spread it on the whole disc.Cook it for about 2 minutes on a medium flame.
6. Turn it around again and apply oil on the other surface as well.
7. When both sides are cooked evenly, take it off from the pan.
