Weight loss: This is how you can eat paranthas without feeling guilty

 

This is how you can eat paranthas without feeling guilty

Nothing can make for a more satisfying meal than paranthas loaded with butter/ghee along with some yummy achar and a tall glass of lassi. But those who are on a weight loss goal often resist having paranthas because they know it is loaded with calories.

But what if we tell you that there are some easy ways that can make your paranthas healthy and help you have them without any guilt?

Yes, you read that right, you can make your paranthas healthy by following some easy peasy tips.

Here are five tips to eat your paranthas guilt-free:

Spinach/rajma/dal puree

While making the dough for parantha, use spinach puree/ rajma puree or dal puree to increase the nutritional value of parantha.

Spinach is rich in vitamin A, C, K, magnesium, manganese and iron. Spinach reduces oxidative stress, reduces blood pressure levels, strengthens your bone and boosts your immunity.

Ramja and dal are full of protein and will make for a healthy and satisfying meal when mixed with parantha dough. 

Use dahi/paneer ka pani for making dough

When we make paneer or dahi at home, the water that is left in the process can be used to make dough for parantha. This water is rich in protein, probiotic and has various other health benefits.  

Choose healthy stuffing

Instead of aloo, choose healthy options like paneer, corn, broccoli, soya or sattu to make stuffed paranthas. This will make your paranthas even tastier and healthier at the same time.

​Add ajwain, pudina/dhaniya leaves

Adding pudina/dhaniya/curry patta leaves and some ajwain will help you digest your paranthas easily. Ajwain aids digestion and pudina/dhaniya/curry leaves add nutritional value to your paranthas.

Add chia seeds

Crunchy paranthas taste even better. To add crunch and nutrition to your parantha, put powdered chia/flaxseeds along with the stuffing. This will make your paranthas fiber rich. These tiny seeds are rich in protein, omega 3 and help lower the blood pressure.
