About Daal parantha

Daal Parantha is a hearty, flavorful dish from Indian cuisine that combines protein-rich lentils (daal) with whole wheat flatbread (parantha). The dough is typically made from whole wheat flour and kneaded with spices, while the filling consists of cooked and spiced lentils like chana daal or moong daal, often mixed with fresh herbs such as cilantro. This savory stuffed bread is pan-fried with minimal oil, providing a crisp exterior while retaining its softness inside. Daal Parantha is a nutritious choice due to its high fiber content, complex carbohydrates, and plant-based protein, making it filling and energy-sustaining. However, its healthiness can be impacted by the amount of oil or butter used during cooking, which might contribute to additional fats and calories. Enjoyed with yogurt or chutney, it’s a satisfying meal or snack that exemplifies the rich culinary traditions of India.
