healthy green pea paratha are sustaining and wholesome. Puréed green peas are combined with whole wheat flour to make this delicious paratha dough.

In diabetic green pea paratha, both whole wheat flour and green peas are rich in fibre, which aids in controlling blood sugar levels. Each paratha being cooked in ¼ teaspoon of oil is absolutely healthy for diabetics, as well as the whole family. I usually make this at home when any of my family member is down with acidity, as green pea is said to be alkaline, and when combined with wheat flour, it helps to balance the acid-alkaline ratio. Remember to reduce the green chillies used in matar paratha for acidity.

The matar paratha for weight loss doesn’t use much ingredients and is simple to make. All you need to do is puree the boiled green peas in a blender. Further, transfer it to a bowl, add whole wheat flour, salt, green chillies, low fat curds and carom seeds. Knead into a soft dough without using any water. Next, divide and roll into a chapatti and cook using peanut oil until golden brown from both the sides. Serve green pea paratha hot.

Green peas are a fair source of carbs, but their high fiber count and low glycemic index (22) makes diabetic green pea paratha suitable for diabetes. Green peas are best combined with another fiber rich food so the overall glycemic count of the recipe is well maintained. So, here we have combined them with whole wheat flour (and not low fiber maida) and put up in the form of a paratha on the table. With the addition of just a few basic spices from our masala dabba, these parathas are remarkably tasty when served off the tava. Serve matar paratha for weight loss with protein rich low fat curds and not pickle.

Serve the green pea paratha for acidity fresh off the tava with Karela Kadhi and Carrot Garlic Chutney.

It is recommended that a diabetic should restrict to only 1 Green Peas Paratha, so as to not go overboard on the carb intake.
