Omam paratha (carom seeds/bishop's weed/ajwain)

Omam paratha (carom seeds/bishop's weed) - Preparation time 15 mins
Some people won't like the smell of omam but it is really good for health. Can be consumed as seeds also. I tried adding omam to wheat flour and made paratha. It smelled good. Omam is good for digestion. Try out if you like the taste you can make this paratha.

Ingredients:-
Omam seed - 1 tbsp
Wheat flour - 3 cup
Salt - to taste
Vegetable oil - 2 tbsp

Preparation method:-
In a mixing bowl add the wheat flour, hand crushed omam, salt, 1 tbsp of oil. Blend all the ingredients well. 
Add required amount of water to make slightly tight dough (the dough you usually used to make for chapathi) i.e. not sticky and tight like puri dough.
From this dough make small balls and round paratha. Heat the tawa and cook with little oil. It smells very good and easily digestible because of the spice omam.
