Laccha Paratha

At Haldirams restaurant , I tasted laccha paratha for the first time. Since then I have been a huge fan of it. After moving to US I found the frozen packs of the paratha and it is really delicious and easy. But it had loads of preservatives and oil so I wanted to make a homemade version of it.
So here it goes, my version of laccha paratha.
Ingredients:

  1. Wheat flour:1 cup
  2. Ghee:1 tblsp
  3. Salt:1/2 tsp
  4. Water:As needed

Procedure:
Mix flour,a tsp of ghee,salt well and then sprinkle water enough to make a smooth dough.  
Divide into 4 equal balls.
Roll into big circle,as big as our tawa.
Then apply a tsp of ghee evenly on the top and spread.
Sprinkle a tsp of flour and again spread evenly and start making fleets.
After fully done, twist and coil (roll) to make a flat round.
Roll carefully, without applying too much pressure to ensure the layers are still there.
Heat tawa and drizzle oil and cook in medium flame(with oil drizzled) both sides until golden brown. Use the spatula and gently press while cooking to ensure even cooking.
Once cooked through with light brown spots on both sides smear ghee or butter when it is hot.


Enjoy hot with simply dal or dahi and pickle and any veg or non-veg curry.
Till then happy blogging
