Soft Parotta Recipe

Paratha is usually called as parotta where I grew up. Its near to virudhunagar, where yennai parotta (Deep fried paratha) is famous. At my place, soft parotta serves with veg or non veg salna, it will be so nice to have  on a rainy day. The Parottta they make is entirely different there are so many methods in doing that,they will just throw the dough in air to make it thin, at home I am not practiced like that. This recipe is my own version of create shortcut of parotta flakes.


Ingredients

  • All Purpose Flour / Maida - 1 cup
  • Wheat Flour - 1 cup
  • Sugar - 2 tsp
  • Oil - 2 tbsp
  • Curd - 1 tbsp
  • Warm Milk - ½ cup
  • Warm Water as needed
  • Salt as per taste

To make dough

  1. Take wheat flour and all purpose flour in a wide mixing bowl.
  2. Add salt, curd, warm milk, water and oil.
  3. Add water and start mixing the flour.
  4. Initially the dough may look and feel sticky. Add few drops of oil and knead the dough well.
  5. Let the dough rest for 1 - 2 hrs.
  6. After 2 hrs, you feel the dough but raised due to curd and salt. It acts together like yeast.
