Flaky Parathas
How would you define Flaky ? "separating easily into small pieces ".
My flaky paratha is lightly crisp with flakes falling apart,tastes best with a spicy curry.
Ingredients
2 Cups wheat Wheat Flour
2 Tablespoon Extra Virgin olive oil(EVOO)
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
water
To make Flaky Parathas
Prepare the dough
Make a well in the middle of flour ,pour in the water and oil. Mix until the dough is of smooth consistency. knead for couple of minutes and let rest for about 10minutes before rolling in to parathas.
Rolling the Paratha
Divide the dough in to about 6 portions and shape in to balls.
Sprinkle a little flour(I prefer All purpose flour) on the rolling surface.
Roll one of the portion thin and slather some oil around it. Start folding thin folds,finish folding till the end. Now circle the folded dough and roll it flat again.
Roast the Parathas
Preheat an iron pan(Tava) or non stick pan at medium high flame. Roast the parathas flip once and spread some oil and flip again after few seconds. Use a spatula to lightly press and roll them around the pan.Serve with any curry.
