About Lachha paratha

Lachha Paratha is a popular Indian flatbread known for its flaky, layered texture and rich flavor. Originating from North Indian cuisine, this paratha is made using wheat flour, water, salt, and a touch of oil or ghee for layering and crispness. The dough is rolled, folded repeatedly, and cooked on a griddle, creating its characteristic layers. Lachha Paratha is typically enjoyed with curries, pickles, or yogurt-based dishes. While it provides energy through carbohydrates and some fiber from the whole wheat flour, its nutritional profile also includes fats, especially if prepared with generous amounts of ghee or oil. Moderation is key, as excessive intake may contribute to calorie overload. Choosing whole wheat flour and minimal oil can create a healthier version. This hearty bread is beloved for its satisfying bite but should be balanced with nutrient-rich sides in a wholesome meal.
