Bajara ka paratha or Bajra ki roti is Rajasthani in origin. Bajara is the Hindi word for Pearl Millet. Bajara is very popular in Northern region of India and it is eaten during winter season. Bajara kheer and bajara churma are one of the popular dishes made with bajara (pearl millet). Bajara paratha is made with bajara flour and to perk up the flavor spices are added to the flour when making the dough. I add bajara flour with some wheat flour and one mashed potato so that bajara paratha is become soft and tasty and handle very easily. This way of make paratha is very easy.You can eat bajara paratha in breakfast and as well as add in your loved once lunch box also. North Indians love to eat bajra ka paratha with fresh homemade butter.
