Cooking Steps
In a mixing bowl, combine the besan flour, chopped spinach leaves, roasted cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fenugreek seeds, niger seeds and salt. Mix well.
Gradually add water to the mixture and knead into a soft and pliable dough. Cover the dough and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Dust the rolling surface with some flour and roll out each dough ball into a thin, circular disc.
Heat a non-stick tava or skillet over medium heat. Spray some cooking spray on the tava and place the rolled-out paratha on it.
Cook the paratha on one side for 1-2 minutes until small bubbles appear on the surface. Flip the paratha and spray cooking spray on the other side.
Cook the paratha for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Serve the palak paratha hot.
