LAACHHA PARATHA

 LAACHHA PARATHA

This is one variety of paratha.Tastes good.


Ingredients:
atta(wheat flour)-200gms,
salt to taste,
ghee-as required for frying parathas.



Method:
Mix atta and salt and knead to get a soft dough.Keep aside for an hour.
Make 8 balls out of it.
Make chappatis out of the balls.
On rolling the chapathis,  apply ghee uniformly on one and place another chappati on the top. Again apply ghee on top of the second chapathi, place another chapathi on the second one. Continue the process till a set of 4 chapathis is made.
Roll the set of 4 chapathis to a cylindrical shape, cut the rolled chapathis cross-wise to 4 pieces.
Press and roll each cut-piece to make chappatis, slightly thicker than the normal ones(parathas).
Roast each paratha on the tawa, using ghee. Cook both sides.
While roasting, press it lightly, so that the parathas(called lachas) are cooked well.
Repeat the process with the rest of the 4 balls.
Totally 8 lachas can be prepared with the above ingredients.
Serve hot with any kind of vegetable curry.
