Method –
- Wash spinach and drain completely

- Add the purée to the flour along with salt
- Knead together to make a dough (add a little water if the dough is dry or add a little flour if the dough is sticky)
- Add 1 tbsp oil and knead well to make a soft pliable dough
- Make 8 equal sized balls
- Set this aside for 30 minutes and cover them
- Flour the rolling area and flatten a ball. Sprinkle flour.
- Roll it to make slightly thick palak paratha.
- Sprinkle flour over the paratha as needed to prevent sticking. It has to be slightly thicker than roti.
