Lachha Paratha / Lachcha Paratha–Layered Crispy and Flaky Whole Wheat Paratha

Coming today is another variety of Indian Bread which is layered and is crispy and flaky. You can make this with all purpose flour also, today I made this with Whole Wheat Flour and loved the taste and texture. I served this with Mooli Masala. Make this for dinner and enjoy it with your favorite side dish..

Method

Mix together flour and salt well
Add 2 table spoons of oil and rub it well so that it is incorporated well
Add warm water slowly (will need about 50 - 55% of the flour quantity)
Knead it well until you a smooth and soft doough
Keep this covered for 20 minutes
After 20 minutes, divide the dough into 8 balls
Roll it in to 6 inch disc
Smear little oil on the disc and spread it well
Make the disc into a fan by folding little and little
Now you will have a strip that is folded
Make the strip to a round and seal the edges
Now press the round so that the edges are sealed well
Roll this round into 8 inches disc
Heat a tawa and smear very little oil
Once the tawa is hot, place the paratha and cook until both sides are well cooked and there are brown spots all over
