Lachcha Paratha

Ingredients : Whole wheat flour, Salt and water.

Preapare a regular dough as you would prepare for chapati.

You can also use maida for this recipe. Lachcha Parathas made with maida are much more soft and crisp than whole wheat flour. But whole wheat lachcha parathas are a healthy deal :)

Procedure :

Take the dough slightly bigger than the size of regular chapati.

Using a rolling pin, roll the ball shaped dough into a chapati.

Pour a few drops of refined oil/ghee over it.

Spread it all over.

Fold the chapati like a fan.

From one end start rolling it to make a circle.

Go on...

The final result should be this. Press the ends.

Dust it with flour.

Other side too.

Start rolling it with the rolling pin

Roll it till u make it to the size of chapati.

Now heat a non-stick tawa/griddle, cook it as we cook a regular paratha.

Serve immediately.

Tastes best with pineapple raita + paneer sabji/navratan korma/ methi matar malai and other such party recipes.
