About Malabar paratha

Malabar Paratha, also known as Kerala Paratha, is a flaky, layered flatbread originating from the Malabar region of Kerala, India. Prepared with all-purpose flour, water, oil, and a touch of salt, the dough is kneaded, rolled, and folded multiple times to create its signature layers. Typically cooked on a hot griddle, it achieves a golden, crisp exterior and a soft, tender inside. While loved for its rich texture and taste, Malabar Paratha is traditionally high in refined carbohydrates and fats, making it less ideal for those seeking nutrient-dense options. However, it can be paired with fiber-rich vegetables or lean protein-based curries to balance the meal. Its indulgent nature makes it a popular choice for festive occasions and traditional South Indian spreads, but moderation is encouraged for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
