South Indian parotta looks like North Indian lachha paratha, but it tastes different. It goes well with meat and vegetable curries. The Indian bread is fulfilling and a delight to consume for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Here is how to make it.
1 tablespoon sugar 2 cups all-purpose flour Water as required Oil 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons ghee
In a deep vessel, mix all-purpose flour with ghee, salt, and sugar. Add water as required and knead it into a smooth, soft, and slightly sticky dough.
Divide the dough into small balls. Drizzle oil over them, cover them, and keep them aside for a while.
Take one ball at a time, dust it with dry flour, and roll it into a thin disc. Start folding its edges and turn it into a ball again.
Start rolling the ball again, and you will witness multiple layers forming on its surface. This time, keep the thickness in the medium range.
On a hot tawa, roast the parotta on both sides until it is soft and crispy in some places.
Repeat the process with other dough balls and serve parotta with your favourite South Indian curry.
