Plain paratha

June 18, 2015

Ingredients:

Whole wheat flour           : 2 cups
Salt  to taste


Method:


Mix wheat flour and salt together. Add water little by little to make a smooth dough. Take a big lemon sized ball and flatten it slightly. Dust it with little flour and roll it with a rolling pin for about four inches.


Then apply some ghee over it, fold one half over the other, add some more ghee over it. Then again fold it, now it look like a folded triangle.





Roll the folded triangle into a thin chappathi.  Heat the tawa and it should be medium hot. Place the paratha over the tawa. When it starts puffing up flip it over to cook the other side.  Small brown spot will appear now, apply ghee over this and flip again to cook both sides evenly. 





Variation:  Instead of folding it into a triangle we can fold it from both sides and again fold it again in a square shape.





Then roll it again to make a square chappathi ...  Cook it applying a little oil over it..Both same,  only the shape is different!
