In Panchkula we used to have papaya trees at home and raw papaya parantha was a regular fare. its been ages since i had one last time. yesterday i had a strong craving for the parantha and asked Nived to get a raw papaya on his way back home. it tastes super-delicious and very different from regular stuffed parantha and has a very slight tangy-sweet taste to it. you have to eat it to know what i am talking about. must try.
peel and grate raw papaya. squeeze to remove excess juice and wait! don't throw away this juice, it is excellent for your skin...apply some on your face and drink the rest of it..it does wonders to your liver too. add turmeric, chilli powder, ajwain, garam masala, salt and hara dhaniya and your stuffing is ready. knead your regular dough and use this stuffing to make super nutritious-delicious papaya paranthas. for extra taste use pure desi ghee to roast and serve hot with white butter, lime-pickle and fresh curd. i also love to sip 'extra-milk, extra-sweet' ginger tea with this. complete satisfaction guaranteed.
Yes i have also eaten it long back...it is really very yummy.
