Parotta



Parotta is one of my favorite. The very little time I go to restaurant when I was a kid, I always used to order this. I was glad when I could make it home. Ofcourse it is exactly not like what you get in restaurant but a good option to make it fresh at home.

Ingredients :
( makes around 10)
All purpose flour - 2 cup
Oil - 1/4 cup ( for making dough )
Salt to taste
Oil - 2 tbsp

Method :


1. Mix maida, oil, salt and water to make a soft dough.
2. Mix well for 10 minutes with hand. Close it with a wet cloth or tissue.
3. Let it rest for 3  hours.
4. Divide the dough into 10 parts.
5. Roll the dough into thin sheet as shown in the picture.
   Make it as thin as possible. Even if it tares in between, that's fine.
6. Apply little oil on top of the sheet with hand or brush.
7. Pleat it into a long thick strip. Coil this strip in a circle like in the picture shown above.
8. Apply oil on the top and let it rest for atleast 30 minutes.
9. Roll it into lightly thick roti.
10. Fry it in a hot pan on both sides.
11.Once all the parottos are done. Put all then one on top of other.
12. Crush the parottos on sides to open up the layers.
