Lachha Paratha Recipe | Wheat Paratha Recipe

Lachha paratha

I even have made a Flaky paratha post previously,That paratha is made with maida. But this can be a flaky lacha paratha made with wheat flour.So it’s a healthy one.

This is actually easy to make, nevertheless it take a little bit of time. Often we will likely be having regular chapati, but this one will likely be a change for that. I served it with chettinad mushroom and tomato chutney. You might rest the dough for two hours. This makes the chapati so soft. So do this and let me know what you’re thinking that.

About Lachha Paratha Recipe 

Wheat paratha or lachha paratha is certainly one of the favored recipe all over the world. It’s a healthy option for maida paratha or malabar paratha.

Dough is made with a mixture of wheat flour and plain flour or you should use only whole wheat flour. Addition of a bit plain flour makes the paratha much more sofgt. I even have included that version within the video of this post. But this version has only whole wheat flour. This one taste amazing with curries or any side dishes.
