This layered paratha tastes best when served with something spicy like an egg curry, chicken curry or say kadai paneer....Though a little tedious, it tastes awesome!
Ingredients:
1.Aata-1 cup
2.Maida-1 cup
3.salt to taste
4.milk-1/2 cup or as req...
5.curd-2 tbs
6.Baking power(optional)-1/2 tsp
7.Oil accordingly...
Method:
1.Take the aata & maida & mix some salt & the baking powder...Make a well & slowly start adding the milk & start kneading the dough....Add just enough milk to make a soft pliable dough..Knead it well & finally add some oil & knead for some more time....Keep aside & covered with a wet towel for at least an hour...
2.After an hour take the dough & once again knead well & the make balls out of it to be rolled out into the parathas....
3.Take the ball & roll it into a chapatti..Once rolled brush it with some oil & dip it in some dry aata....then fold the chapatti like you would pleat a Saree, stretch it & then roll it up such that it looks like a concentric circle...Keep aside & do the same for the rest of the dough....Keep this covered with a wet towel for another 10 minutes...Then roll these out carefully,ensuring you do not put a lot of pressure on the paratha while rolling it out.
