Till recently i was not aware of this Paratha,named Baida Paratha.Baida Roti/Paratha is a egg roti. This is one of the yummy street food of mumbai.Few days before i had been to a
restaurant where Mumbai street festival was going on and they were serving this yummy food.I tasted this and at once i became a very big fan this,i straight away walked to the chef and started asking what was it and how actually they do it.As the ambience of the restuarant they had made it as street food ,there were too many peaople near the stall and couldnt actually get the recipe.Even after a month ,that taste of baida paratha was lingering on my tounge and thought i would try it at home.Started googling and found very few sites where they had explained about baida paratha…….,as always went through all the recipes from few websites,blog and finally adapted as i needed.Well,to my surprise it turned out to be one of the best and yummy filling snack,if you are a non vegetarian you should definitely try this one.
Take all purpose flour,salt,baking powder,egg and 1 Tbsp of oil and mix well,when it looks like crumbs add warm milk and add water 1 tbsp at a time and start kneading the dough.
Add water little at a time and prepare a dough,start kneading well while kneading it reaches a point where it becomes sticky and difficult to handle.Now add 1 tbsp of oil and knead well till it becomes smooth and a pliable dough.Now smear a tbsp of oil,and cover it with a kitchen towel and let it rest for minimum 30 minutes.(I had kept it for 3 hrs)
Prepare the stuffing,Take a pan ,add heat oil add chopped onions,ginger garlic paste,green chilies and saute well,till the raw smell goes off.
Now add all the spice powders and saute well.For this add minced meat or chicken kheema ,add salt,saute well for 5 minutes and close the lid and cook well for 15-20 minutes.
Open the lid and cook till the water completely dries.Now add chopped coriander and mint leaves,lime juice mix well,Adjust salt or spice if needed and keep it aside.
Divide the dough into 10 balls of equal size.Take 2 eggs in a bowl,beat well add salt and pepper and set aside.
Smear some oil on workplace,take a ball and roll it into a large round roti,place some stuffing at the center and pour a tbsp of beaten egg over it.
Now fold and bring the upper and lower portion of the roti to the centre.And also left and right side of the roti to the center,so that it forms a square/rectangle packet.
Put some oil over a griddle and heat it ,place the prepared paratha over the oil and now pour another Tbsp of beaten egg over the center and edges.Drizzle some more oil and cook on both sides ,make it crisp.
Baida Roti is ready to serve enjoy as a evening snack with a cup of tea. This is quite heavy on stomach as a snack ;),but for sure one would love to eat it again and again.Worth trying this recipe,really delicious.
