Method
- Add whole wheat flour, chopped methi, ajwain, salt, and 1 tbsp oil to a mixing bowl.
- Add water little by little and knead into a soft, smooth dough. Rest for 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into equal balls. Roll one ball into a thin circle, apply a few drops of oil, fold into layers, and roll again to form a lachha shape.
- Heat a tawa and place the rolled paratha on it. Cook until light brown spots appear on both sides.
- Brush lightly with oil or ghee and cook until crisp and flaky. Repeat for all parathas.
Notes
For extra softness, add 1 tbsp curd while kneading. You can also mix in grated garlic for added flavor.
