🌿 Healthy Moringa (Drumstick Leaves) Paratha – Nutritious & Flavorful Flatbread

Moringa, also known as drumstick leaves, has gained fame as a superfood for its incredible nutritional benefits — from boosting immunity to supporting digestion and detox. One of the easiest and most delicious ways to include moringa in your diet is by making this moringa paratha — a wholesome Indian flatbread packed with flavor, fiber, and health!

🥬 Why Use Moringa (Drumstick Leaves)?

  • Rich in iron, calcium, and antioxidants

  • Supports hormonal balance, especially in women over 40

  • Aids digestion and energy

  • Helps with detox and cleansing

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • ½ to 1 cup fresh moringa (drumstick) leaves, washed and finely chopped

  • 1 tsp cumin seeds

  • 1 tsp ajwain (carom seeds) – optional, helps digestion

  • ½ tsp turmeric powder

  • Salt to taste

  • 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste (optional, for flavor)

  • Water to knead

  • Ghee or oil for roasting

💡 You can also use dried drumstick leaves if fresh ones are not available. Just soak them briefly in warm water and squeeze before adding to the dough.

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, chopped moringa leaves, spices, salt, and ginger-garlic paste.

  2. Add water little by little to knead into a soft dough.

  3. Let the dough rest for 10–15 minutes.

  4. Divide into equal portions and roll each into a paratha.

  5. Heat a tawa or griddle, roast each side with a little ghee or oil until golden spots appear.

  6. Serve hot!

🍽️ Serving Suggestion

I served this moringa paratha with:

  • 🫚 Hand-pounded amla chutney (great for vitamin C)

  • 🥕 Mixed vegetable curry for a balanced meal

This makes a perfect breakfast or light lunch that’s nourishing and easy to digest.
