Cucumber stuffed flat bread| southekayi Paratha
We make rotti using rice flour and cucumber (southekayi akki rotti) generally. But I wanted to make stuffed wheat flour paratha using cucumber. So tried making this paratha which suits the hot weather as well and it turned out to be so yummy. As cucumber has got lot of water content in it, you need to squeeze it really well. We can also make paratha by mixing the grated cucumber directly into the flour, both ways it tastes superb. So sharing the recipe with you all.
