Recipe By Slurrp

Mughlai paratha is a popular dish from the Bengali street food fare that can be found in and around the region. Our common sense understanding of paratha is that it is a stuffed Indian flatbread. However, the Mughlai paratha is slightly different. It is more of deep-fried pastry. The pastry is filled with a hefty minced meat filling and fried in hot oil. The origins of this flaky paratha trace back to the court of Emperor Jehangir whose chef from Bardhaman, Bengal, prepared this dish. The influence of Muslim culture and cooks in Bengal was quite prevalent and these parathas made their way to the streets of Kolkata. The prefix Mughlai was added to attract customers and since then, the name has remained with it. Although the paratha has a chicken filled usually, this Mughlai Paratha recipe is a delicious paratha made with plain flour and enhanced by egg filling inside.
