Corn and cheese is always a winning combo and i already posted corn cheese balls recipe but this corn cheese paratha i gave for Kungumam Thozi magazine. It got published in first week of March. Parathas will be in the lunch box menu of kids every week. Mostly i make aloo paratha or gobi paratha for them. When i made this one day for dinner both my kids loved it and requested to make the same for the lunch box too the next day. Liking a same dish by both kids is not easy at my home. I think moms with 2 grown up kids will vouch for it. Try this easy paratha recipe at home and i am sure your teenage kid or the little one will enjoy this corn cheese paratha.
