Laccha Paratha

-


This was in my to-do list for a pretty long time. Ever since my Kerala Parotta turned out well, I was intended to try out Laccha Paratha. It is pretty easy to make and goes well with veg/nonveg dishes. All you need is to do it out patiently. I have clearly mentioned all steps below.
Do give it a try and let me know your experience...

 Ingredients

 All-purpose flour- 1 cup
Wheat flour- 1 cup
Baking soda- 1/2 tsp
Salt- as per taste
Sugar- a pinch
Water- 1 cup
Oil- 1 tsp+ for greasing

 Here we go...

 1. Take all purpose flour and wheat flour in a bowl. Add salt, sugar and baking soda. Mix it well with hands.
2. Add in water little by little and knead well
3. Drizzle with oil and cover it with a cloth. Let it rest for 30 minutes
4. Divide it into equal parts.
5. Take a ball out of it and flatten it out. Roll it out thin
6. Spread oil on top of this and start pleating.
7. Pull it out as much as you can. Oil gives lubrication and it increases in length
8. Now fold it out and start rolling again
9. Now, heat a pan and put the rolled paratha.
10. Drizzle oil and cook both sides
11. You can see flakes in paratha. Serve hot with your favourite side dish
