Parathas - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
3/4 cup water
oil for frying
Preparation
-
Mix all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour in a bowl. Sprinkle salt on top. Add butter, sugar, garlic powder, and dried herbs. Mix together with your fingers. Pour water in gradually; continue to mix by hand until a soft dough is formed.
Knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 7 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth; let rest for 30 minutes.
Divide dough into 8 equal portions. Shape into smooth balls; lightly flatten. Dust with flour and roll into thin circles about 1/16-inch thick and 7 inches in diameter.
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Fry each dough circle until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
