Make delicious dishes from Bathua in winter, know not just one but many of its benefits and recipes!

How to make delicious dishes from bathua: Eating bathua in winter months is very beneficial for health. It is a leafy green vegetable which grows abundantly in the winter season. It is traditionally considered a common, everyday vegetable and has long been a part of Indian cuisine, especially in rural areas. Due to its earthy taste and versatility, it becomes an essential ingredient in parathas, curries and raita in winters.

One of the biggest health benefits of Bathua is the high fiber present in it, which helps in digestion and prevents constipation. Eating it regularly strengthens the digestive system and keeps the intestines healthy. In fact, in many homes, Bathua bhaji or parathas are specially prepared to improve digestion during heavy winter meals, which are often rich in ghee, sweets and fried foods.

Bathua is rich in iron and calcium, so it is great for strengthening bones and preventing calcium deficiency. Women and children especially benefit from its minerals. Its calcium helps in maintaining bone density, while its iron helps in making hemoglobin.

Bathua contains vitamins A and C, which increase immunity and improve skin health. Vitamin A helps in improving vision and skin, while Vitamin C strengthens the immune system, enabling the body to fight seasonal infections like cold and cough.

Bathua is considered beneficial for weight loss. It has less calories and more fiber, due to which the stomach remains full for a longer time and the desire to eat again and again is reduced. Many nutritionists recommend including bathua in their diet during the winter months for people who want to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight without compromising on nutrition.

The easiest and tastiest way to make Bathua Paratha is as follows: First of all, take 1 cup Bathua leaves (washed and finely chopped), 2 cups wheat flour, 1 teaspoon celery, salt as per taste, 1 teaspoon ghee or oil for kneading the dough, and ghee/oil for cooking.
