&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Come winters, and vegetable markets in Delhi are flooded with varieties of leafy greens.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Among these vegetables is one hitherto unwanted weed, foraged from wheat fields. Commonly known as bathua in Hindi, cheel bhaji in Gujarati, paruppu keerai in Tamil, chandanbethu in Bengali and vastuccira in Malayalam, this weed is 15-20 cm tall and has broad, lobed leaves, resembling a goose&amp;rsquo;s foot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Because of the shape of the leaves, the plant is also called white goosefoot or Chenopodium album in scientific lexicon &amp;mdash; Greek words chen means goose and podion means foot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Its fresh leaves, which taste a bit salty, are used for making various traditional dishes. Piping hot bathua-stuffed parathas and soothing bathua raita are some of the popular dishes consumed in most parts of North India (see recipes).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Bathua is known for its rich fibre content and medicinal properties. In Ayurveda, it is prescribed for conditions such as cough, diarrhoea, fever and poor appetite.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Among these vegetables is one hitherto unwanted weed, foraged from wheat fields. Commonly known as bathua in Hindi, cheel bhaji in Gujarati, paruppu keerai in Tamil, chandanbethu in Bengali and vastuccira in Malayalam, this weed is 15-20 cm tall and has broad, lobed leaves, resembling a goose&amp;rsquo;s foot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Because of the shape of the leaves, the plant is also called white goosefoot or Chenopodium album in scientific lexicon &amp;mdash; Greek words chen means goose and podion means foot.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Its fresh leaves, which taste a bit salty, are used for making various traditional dishes. Piping hot bathua-stuffed parathas and soothing bathua raita are some of the popular dishes consumed in most parts of North India (see recipes).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Bathua is known for its rich fibre content and medicinal properties. In Ayurveda, it is prescribed for conditions such as cough, diarrhoea, fever and poor appetite.&lt;/p&gt;

Value in the weed: Profit potential of green and leafy bathua -Vibha Varshney

-Down to Earth Bathua is in demand for its nutrition and taste. Improved varieties of the weed can make it popular among farmers Come winters, and vegetable markets in Delhi are flooded with varieties of leafy greens. Among these vegetables is one hitherto unwanted weed, foraged from wheat fields. Commonly known as bathua in Hindi, cheel bhaji in Gujarati, paruppu keerai in Tamil, chandanbethu in Bengali and vastuccira in Malayalam, this weed is 15-20 cm tall and has broad, lobed leaves, resembling a goose’s foot. Because of the shape of the leaves, the plant is also called white goosefoot or Chenopodium album in scientific lexicon — Greek words chen means goose and podion means foot. Its fresh leaves, which taste a bit salty, are used for making various traditional dishes. Piping hot bathua-stuffed parathas and soothing bathua raita are some of the popular dishes consumed in most parts of North India (see recipes). Bathua is known for its rich fibre content and medicinal properties. In Ayurveda, it is prescribed for conditions such as cough, diarrhoea, fever and poor appetite. Please click here to read more.
