Lachha paratha recipe

In a bowl, add wheat flour, salt, water and knead it to a dough. Let it rest for 20 minutes. Divide the dough into equal portions.

Take a dough ball. Roll it into a 6 to 7 inches diameter disc on a dusted rolling board. Apply ghee or oil liberally on the paratha disc. Sprinkle some flour on the top. From the edges start to fold & pleat the paratha till the end. Roll the pleated edges tightly. Join the edges. Lightly dust with flour and now roll into round parathas of about 4 to 5 inches in diameter.

Heat a girdle, roll out a portion of dough with a rolling pin, place the paratha on it. Cook it on one side for 30 seconds, apply ghee, flip and cook the other side by applying ghee.

Serve hot with curries.
