Often found in local markets and restaurants, this delectable treat may seem challenging to replicate at home, but fear not! With a little guidance, you can easily make Lachha Paratha that rivals those you find in your favorite eateries. In this step-by-step guide, we'll walk you through the process of making this mouthwatering delight.

Ingredients You'll Need

Before we dive into the cooking process, let's gather the essential ingredients. You'll need:

For the Dough

  • 2 cups of whole wheat flour (atta)
  • 2 tablespoons of ghee (clarified butter)
  • Water (as needed for kneading)
  • Salt (to taste)

For Layering

  • 2 tablespoons of ghee (for spreading)
  • Additional wheat flour (for dusting)

Now that we have our ingredients ready, let's get started on crafting the perfect Lachha Paratha.

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

1.1. In a mixing bowl, add the whole wheat flour and a pinch of salt.

1.2. Gradually add water while kneading the flour to form a soft and pliable dough.

1.3. Once the dough is ready, add two tablespoons of ghee and knead again until the ghee is well incorporated.

1.4. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.

Step 2: Divide and Roll

2.1. After resting, divide the dough into equal-sized balls, roughly the size of golf balls.

2.2. Roll each ball between your palms to make them smooth and round.

2.3. Take one dough ball and flatten it slightly.

2.4. Dust it with some wheat flour to prevent sticking, and roll it out into a thin circle (roti), approximately 6-7 inches in diameter.

Step 3: Layering

3.1. Place the rolled roti on a clean surface and brush it with a generous amount of ghee.

3.2. Sprinkle a thin layer of wheat flour evenly over the ghee-coated roti.

3.3. Carefully make small pleats (like a paper fan) along the length of the roti.

3.4. Now, fold the pleated roti like an accordion.

3.5. Roll up the folded roti to form a spiral, tucking the end underneath.

Step 4: Rolling and Shaping

4.1. Take the spiral-shaped dough and gently flatten it with your palms.

4.2. Roll it out again into a circular shape, ensuring it's not too thin.

Step 5: Cooking

5.1. Heat a griddle or tava on medium-high heat.

5.2. Place the rolled Lachha Paratha on the hot griddle.

5.3. Cook until small bubbles start to form on the surface, then flip it over.

5.4. Brush ghee on the cooked side and flip again.

5.5. Repeat the process, cooking until both sides are golden brown and crispy.

Step 6: Serve Hot

6.1. Once your Lachha Paratha is perfectly cooked, remove it from the griddle.

6.2. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes such as yogurt, pickles, or a delicious curry.

Enjoy your homemade Lachha Paratha, with its flaky layers and tempting aroma, just like those you find in the market!
