LACHA PARATHA

Lacha Paratha Recipe @ http://treatntrick.blogspot.com


A layered flat bread made with wheat flour. Made as per normal paratha dough, this bread requires an additional step to obtain its layering effect.

After it has been rolled out flat and thin, a small amount of oil to be applied on the surface before pleating it as you did for a fan.

This is my first attempt making them, its seems so easy and it involves a right technique and practice to get it right.

This recipe was great, my family enjoyed it very much, this will be a regular menu in our home!

Dust the board with flour, flatten each dough with rolling pan, be careful not to press hard to avoid losing the layering effect.

Heat the pan, fry each paratha until brown spots appear, flip and cook the the other side. Drizzle some oil while frying. Complete the rest of the dough.
