Inspiration
I have seen this spring onion paratha in Fairprice, a frozen paratha brand sells this one. But I guess it is with maida and the layered way. So many times I will think I should try making at home, it never happened.
Because, I rarely buy spring onion as I would waste it. This time too, I wanted to buy spring onion for making fried rice but never made, so I wanted to use it up without wasting it.
Finally, I remembered this spring onion paratha and made it for lunch. Since Vj is not around, we have all the simple lunch possible.
I thought I will make it just a step by step pictures post, but its been long time since I touched my camera for video, so shot spring onion paratha video. Eventually, I made it similar way I make cabbage paratha.
Both me and Aj enjoyed it a lot. I had it with pickle and boondi raita, as well as, Aj dipped his paratha in boondi raita, what a surprise! Usually he doesn't like curd, so I was surprised to see him have it with raita.
Perfect for lunch and quick dinner fixes and no need for fancy side dish too, just a vegetable subji and a simple raita with pickle will do for this paratha.
