Lachha Paratha

Method :

Take a large bowl and add 1 cup wheat flour, 1/4cup all purpose flour, salt, water and mix the flour well to make a soft dough.

                        

Place the dough in a air tight container for 30 minutes. Then take a lime size ball and roll it into very thin sheet.

                       

Spread oil using a brush or hands and dust some wheat flour over it. Then fold the rolled sheet 1/2 inch top over top. Once done slightly stretch the folded sheet holding at both the ends. (Dont pull it hard otherwise the sheet will tear).

                     

Roll the folded sheet flour as in the image. Dust some wheat flour on it.

                      

Continue the same method for the remaining flour. Once all is done close the prepared flour for 30 min using a cloth or lid.

                      

After 30 min take a flour a roll it to medium thickness. Heat a pan and put the rolled Paratha.

                     

Cook until golden brown both sides. Apply some oil or ghee.

                     

 Transfer it to serving plate. You can notice layers clearly once cooked.
