This dish was featured in Shhhhh Cooking Secretly Challenge which is hosted by Priya Suresh.I was teamed up with Srividya Balaji and we decided on each other’s ingredients.She gave me Broccoli and Cheese while I gave her Raw Papaya.We started planning and soon this Parantha was concocted which I think would satisfy all tastebuds.  A delicious way of enjoying the goodness of Broccoli.Coupled with cheese and veggies its a Parantha packed with nutrition and taste.Its a wonderful lunchbox option as well and great to take while travelling.

Thanks Priya for teaming me up with a wonderful person yet again so that I could create this for all the foodies out there.I thank Priya and all the team of Shhhhh Cooking Secretly Challenge including my partner Srividya Balaji who inspired me to create something different.Proud to present our group’s fab logo:
