About Lachha parata

Lachha Paratha is a popular, layered flatbread from Indian cuisine, known for its crispy texture and flaky layers. Traditionally made from whole wheat flour, it is mixed with water, salt, and sometimes ghee or oil, then rolled and folded repeatedly to create its signature layers. This paratha is often cooked on a hot griddle with a generous brushing of ghee, giving it a rich, buttery flavor. While its whole wheat base provides fiber and some essential nutrients, the high fat content from ghee or oil can contribute to its calorie density, making it less ideal for those on low-fat diets. Lachha Paratha is typically enjoyed with curries, yogurt, or pickles, offering a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. Moderation and mindful preparation, like using less fat, can make it a more balanced option in a wholesome meal.
