Spring onion paratha is an Indian flatbread where spring onion and spices, kneaded with flour to make paratha. It is a flavorful paratha with a change to regular paratha recipes. Here is how to make it.
Hara pyaj ka parathas are not like other stuffed parathas, aloo paratha, gobhi paratha, paneer paratha, mooli paratha, and tofu paratha. Rather add everything in the dough with few spices and make.
Such parathas are easy to make, & quick when compare to stuff parathas, and the best part is kids love these. A perfect breakfast option that is also suitable for a kid's lunchbox.
Spring onion is harvested before letting them further grow the onion bulbs. They are low in calories and carbohydrates but a rich source of vitamins like Vit K, C, minerals, and phytochemicals.
Scallion or green onions can also be used in place of spring onion. Basically, spring onion contains a white bulge at the bottom, whereas the other two do not show such a thing.
Most of the time, spring onions are used in Indo Chinese food but you can cook it with carrots, potatoes, or make this paratha. Do check carrot with spring onion sabji.
spring onions taste amazing in fritters, soups, and to a similar dish named Scallion pancakes.
Why you will love this
Spring onion paratha is an unleavened Indian flatbread prepared by mixing all ingredients in whole wheat flour. They are easy to make and healthy breakfast for busy mornings.
It is best with curd but you can serve with pickle and raita as well. We also call them hara pyaz ka paratha.
I used a food processor to grate spring onion in small pieces. Small pieces help in elevating the actual flavor of spring onion. Since salt is added in the dough, onion leaves water content which is sufficient to knead the dough.

Ingredients
Please check RECIPE CARD for detailed ingredients list with accurate measurement.
- Spring onion- You can chop them finely or just use a food processor to make small pieces.

- Spices- Garam masala or kitchen king, red chili powder, cumin seed powder, coriander powder

How to make spring onion paratha
It is such a flavorful paratha recipe to make with just a few ingredients. Let see how to make spring onion paratha at home, step by step.
IMPORTANT I did not use water as spring onion released enough water after adding salt and because it was chopped by food processor. If you are chopping by hand then you may need water to knead.
- First of all, clean and wash spring onion nicely. Dry it with a paper towel to remove excess water.
- Chop in the food processor (or with a knife) into fine pieces.
- In a mixing bowl gather all ingredients and combine them nicely. Adjust salt as per taste.
- As soon as mixing everything is done onion will start releasing water which is good enough for making the dough.
- Make a soft dough and prepare for rolling parathas.
- Heat a griddle on medium flame.
- Divide the dough into equal parts. 8 parathas you can make with this quantity.
- Roll out a portion in 6″ circle and place it on the heated griddle.
- Cook on both sides by applying oil. Cook until golden brown.
- Repeat the process with other dough balls and make parathas.
- Serve hot this spring onion paratha with any of your favorite homemade curd, pickle, tea, and enjoy.
