Lachha Paratha

The layers and crispiness of lachha paratha makes it different from other paratha. It is quit tricky to make make but taste delicious. When I was making lachha paratha for first time, I was not very sure about how it will come out, but  it came out with perfect layer and crispiness. Now at home it is made very often and everyone likes it.

RECIPE:

Preparation Time: 10-15 mins

Ingredients:

• Wheat Flour: 1&1/2 cup

• When done,  make a flat round as shown in pic.
• Roll without applying too much pressure to ensure the layers are still there.
