About Parantha
Parantha is a popular unleavened flatbread originating from Indian cuisine, typically made by combining whole wheat flour with water, salt, and oil to form a dough. It is rolled thin, often layered with ghee or butter, and cooked on a griddle until golden brown. Parantha can be plain or stuffed with ingredients like spiced potatoes, paneer, lentils, or spinach, offering a variety of flavors. Rich in carbohydrates and fiber from the whole wheat flour, it provides energy and aids digestion. However, its nutritional profile depends on preparation—using excessive ghee or oil can increase calorie and saturated fat content. To make it healthier, opt for minimal fat, whole-grain flour, and nutrient-dense fillings. Commonly enjoyed with yogurt, pickles, or curry, parantha is a comforting and versatile dish, balancing taste and tradition.
