Layered Paratha Recipe
This delicious layered paratha is just the Indian bread you were looking for. Make a value addition to your menu with this tasty mouthwatering paratha. Goes great with a dal(lentils) or Indian curry.

Ingredients
Wheat flour 500gm
One big spoon of vegetable oil
Salt
Directions
Take a big ball of the dough.
Roll it into a circle almost of the size of a Phulka. Apply ghee to it and sprinkle some dry flour on top.
Make a cut from the center to the circumference.
Fold it to a triangle as shown.
Hold the triangle in left hand and from right hand try to seperate the layers from the bottom of the triangle
Carefully push the upper part till it becomes a ball again, take care that the top remains in the center and the bottom part makes rounds around it. This part is a bit difficult and can be mastered by practise. Do not apply too much pressure, otherwise the layers stick to each other. Roll this to a big paratha again.
Heat the tava till it is very hot. Add the paratha.
When some small bubbles appear on it, put it upside down and apply some ghee.
Fry till the paratha is done from both sides.
Serve it when it is still hot. They don’t taste very good when cold.
