One Khushk Paratha is a type of flatbread originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly popular in Pakistan and northern India. Made from wheat flour, water, and a pinch of salt, this unleavened bread is rolled thin and cooked on a hot griddle without oil or butter, giving it a dry, crispy texture compared to traditional parathas. Its simplicity makes it lighter in calories and fat, as it lacks the rich ghee or oil commonly used in other versions. While it offers sustained energy from carbohydrates and fiber due to the whole wheat base, it has minimal protein and healthy fats, making it best paired with nutrient-dense accompaniments like lentils, yogurt, or vegetables. Khushk Paratha is a versatile option for those seeking a lighter, oil-free alternative in traditional South Asian meals. However, moderation should still be practiced, especially for those monitoring carbohydrate intake.
