About Lacha paratha

Lacha Paratha is a popular Indian flatbread known for its flaky, layered texture and rich flavor. Originating from the Indian subcontinent, it is made using simple ingredients: whole wheat flour, water, salt, and a drizzle of oil or ghee, which creates its characteristic crispiness. The dough is rolled and folded into multiple layers before being cooked on a flat griddle, resulting in a delightful combination of softness and crunch. While Lacha Paratha is a satisfying source of carbohydrates, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation. Whole wheat flour provides fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals, promoting digestive health and sustained energy. However, the use of ghee or oil introduces added fat and calories, making moderation key for those watching dietary intake. Paired with hearty curries or vegetables, Lacha Paratha is a delicious and versatile addition to Indian cuisine, offering a taste of tradition in every bite.
