About Plain paratha
Plain paratha is a staple flatbread from the Indian subcontinent, commonly enjoyed in Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi cuisines. Made from whole wheat flour, water, and a pinch of salt, the dough is rolled thin, layered with ghee or oil, and cooked on a hot griddle until golden brown. Its flaky texture and rich flavor make it a versatile accompaniment to curries, dals, or simply yogurt. While paratha provides fiber and energy from whole wheat, it is often brushed with butter or ghee, increasing its calorie and fat content. Moderation is key for those mindful of their caloric intake. One can make healthier versions by using minimal oil or opting for whole-wheat flour with added seeds for more nutrients. A simple yet satisfying comfort food, plain paratha brings a balance of tradition and flavor when enjoyed as part of a well-rounded meal.
