Healthy parathas during the winter months provide warmth and flavour, supporting a healthy immune system; they also fit into everyday meals without disrupting your normal routines. Using high-quality flours, such as Aashirvaad Shudh Chakki Atta, Aashirvaad Select 100% MP Sharbati Atta, or Aashirvaad High Fibre (Multigrain) Atta, will yield softer, more nourishing parathas.
The cold weather in winter usually wreaks havoc with your immune system, especially if you have busy mornings and eat the same foods every day. The food that you eat often becomes "medicine.” This is something that Indian kitchens recognised long ago, adding different warming spices, fresh herbs, and functional ingredients into the staple foods (like roti and paratha) we consume daily. A garlic paratha on a cold winter day is so much more than just comfort food; it serves as a small, effective shield against coughs and fatigue. Using the right quality of flour, along with proper spices and herbs, everyday paratha can be more than just a filler for your stomach.
During winter, digestion will be slower and immunity weaker due to cold temperatures. This is why a warm and nourishing winter diet is recommended. One great way to cover our bodies with immune-supportive components is through parathas, since they are made fresh each time, cooked at high temperatures, and easily utilised by our bodies. Garlic paratha is an excellent paratha with warming and antimicrobial properties. Garlic has a warming effect, and its natural ability to fight off microbes makes it a very beneficial food in the winter months.
Garlic paratha is one of the most highly regarded winter food staples, as the garlic's natural antibacterial properties and deep warmth make it the ideal option for cold mornings or early evenings. Due to the unique properties of Sharbati wheat flour, when mixed with fresh garlic to make dough, the garlic will mellow into a more pleasant flavour while the paratha retains its softness for longer. Using Aashirvaad Select 100% MP Sharbati Atta as the flour to make fresh garlic dough yields an incredibly smooth dough thanks to wheat's high water absorption and its natural aroma.
Turmeric is often an unsung hero in Indian cooking, but a haldi paratha is a light, yet warming, option when you want something delicious without being overwhelmed by heat. Aashirvaad High Fibre Atta with Multigrains would work perfectly with a haldi paratha. With six different kinds of grains and its high fibre content, this paratha will help keep your digestion running smoothly, while the addition of haldi will help build your immunity. Three parathas made using Aashirvaad High Fibre Atta will meet a major portion of your daily fibre requirement. Therefore, these roti meals are both incredibly healthy for you and a great balance of fibre, carbohydrate, protein, and fat.
Drumstick leaves (also called moringa) are rich in vitamins and nutrients that help our bodies cope with seasonal stress. Moringa leaves, included in a paratha, are very comforting to your body during the winter months. The small pieces of the leaves blend easily into the flour dough. Aashirvaad Shudh Chakki Atta is made from whole wheat flour and helps retain moisture in the dough so that it doesn't become too dry during the cooking process. The outcome of this is a soft, earthy bread that feels light but is also very nourishing to the body, and is a great way to build your body’s immunity without making you feel weighed down.
Cooking for good immunity is not simply about what ingredients to add; it is about the quality of the base product. High-quality flour, when used with high-quality spices, yields a smoother texture and feels lighter than lower-quality flours. Aashirvaad Select Sharbati Atta is made from premium wheat grown in Madhya Pradesh, India. This wheat produces a soft roti. Aashirvaad High Fibre with Multigrains is designed to give you more fibre while keeping your taste buds comfortable. For daily use, Aashirvaad Shudh Chakki Atta is an excellent source of both softness and nutritional value.
To help maintain your winter-time immunity, you do not have to cook elaborate meals or drastically change your daily diet. You can add garlic paratha, haldi paratha and moringa paratha to your meals to create a gentle boost, with the help of Aashirvaad's Shudh Chakki Atta, 100% MP Sharbati Atta, and high-fibre flour with multigrains. When you pair your favourite paratha with these options, they will provide you with great sources of warmth, comfort, and nourishment during the winter months.
