Paneer Paratha with Sprouts Salad

More than rice I love rotis, chapatis, parathas!

It's light, filling and tastier; at least I feel that way!

So, here I am indulging in a few of my favorite types of parathas. Mind you, there are a few types: 

• Plain Paratha
• Mooli Paratha
• Aloo Paratha
• Paneer Paratha
• Kheema Paratha
• Onion Paratha
• Gobi Paratha
• Lauki Paratha

The ones I've mentioned above are my favorites, I'm quite sure there must still be many more that I've yet to discover as I further explore India.
