This is one of my favourite Paratha,if you learn the nack of making it properly,you will see nice layers opening up while roasting this paratha…
Ingredients:
1 Cup whole wheat Aata.
1/2 tsp salt.
1 tsp Oil.
Ghee.
Dry Aata.
2 tbsp Coriander Leaves finely chopped.(Optional)
Water to knead the dough.
Method:
Knead a soft dough with aata,salt,water and oil.Keep aside for 20 minutes.
Make 8 balls out of the dough,take one ball and roll a roti out of it,smear some melted ghee and sprinkle some dry aata and chopped coriander leaves on it.
Give a cut from center and tightly roll the roti in one direction to form a cone.
Roll out with light hands,applying minimum pressure using dry flour to form a thick roti.
Roast on a tava on medium heat from both sides,smearing some ghee.
Layers will come out while roasting.
Remove in a serving plate and press gently from the sides towards the centre to make the layers more visible.Serve hot with any curry of your choice.
Tip-Melted butter can be usead instead of ghee, tastes good.
Some chopped corriander or Pudina can also be added to dough.
Happy Cooking !!!
