Masala Paratha – Marathi Recipe

Instructions

• Take wheat flour into a dish and add salt to taste.
• Mix well and add a little water at a time and knead the dough as we knead chapatti dough.
• Add a little oil and knead again.

• Cover and rest the dough for about 15-20 minutes.
• Take the dough and knead it once more to make it even.
• Take a little dough ball and make it even.
• Dip the dough ball into dry flour and roll a little thick chapatti.
• Spread oil all over the chapatti.
• Spread Kanda lasun masala, red chili powder, a little salt, and coriander leaves.
• Add salt just enough to balance the taste of the spices.
• You can use kala masala, malvani masala, varhadi masala, saoji masala or any stored masals that you have instead of kanda lasun masala.
• Roll the coriander leaves a little with a rolling pin so that these won’t fall off.
• Fold the paratha as we fold the paper for making a fan.
• Fold the side having masala inside to make a ball.
• Roll the ball into a little thick paratha again.

• Spread oil from another side as well.
• Roast the paratha well from both sides.
• Take the paratha off the pan into a dish and crush it a little from all sides so that it will get nice layers.
