And here is Mushroom Paratha! Yes and this tastes just too good to have one.
Even if you aren’t mushroom fan, you will enjoy having a bite of this Paratha for sure. Mushroom itself is very nutritious. However making kids eat it, is another battle . So for me personally this Paratha worked best. Not just that my son enjoyed digging into it but also asked another serving. I had to politely refuse as this was our evening snack that day.So I promised to make it again for lunch on a weekend. Also a combination of green chutney with this works perfectly fine.
You can however use the same stuffing for sandwiches too and kids would definately like it with a dash of cheese..ha ha..that is the trick. So while this stuffing can be used for breakfast sandwiches, same can be filled for lunch parathas for school.
Now adding oats combines it well, so please don’t skip that part unless you have something else as binding agent for mushrooms.
