Parotta Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Make the Dough

   In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead until a smooth and elastic dough forms. Once the dough is ready, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Divide the Dough

   After resting, divide the dough into equal-sized balls, approximately the size of a golf ball.

3. 3

   Prepare the Layers

   Take one dough ball and flatten it with your palms. Use a rolling pin to roll it out into a thin circle. Brush a little oil or ghee over the surface, then fold it in half and brush oil again. Fold it once more to form a triangle or a square.

4. 4

   Cook the Parotta

   Heat a tava or skillet over medium heat. Place the folded dough on the hot skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat the process for all dough balls.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve hot with your choice of curry or chutney.
