"It is believed that only experts can cook Punjabi Laccha Paratha, which is a multi-layered shallow fried North Indian flat bread. At the end of the day, Roti/Indian bread served with vegetables and lentils is most comforting for any Indian.

Laccha paratha made with regular roti dough and spiced with some carom seeds adds a great twist to the regular mundane paratha. Smear some clarified butter and serve hot with your favourite dish.

Ingredients required to make this yummy and delicious Laccha Paratha include:

200 gms Whole Wheat flour
150 ml water
salt to taste
1 tbsp oil
1 tablespoon of carom seeds
Clarified Butter (Ghee )

Follow these Step by step instructions to make this exotic Indian bread called Laccha Paratha:
1) Make the simple Roti dough with 200 gms of wheat flour, by adding 150 ml of water and a pinch of salt to knead it together
2) Incorporate 1 tbsp of oil in the dough and massage it well until the oil has disappeared into the dough.
3) Roll out dough ball in a circular shape using some dry flour. Now spread 1/2 teaspoon ghee or oil evenly over the entire surface using your hand and sprinkle some carom seeds (ajwain) on to it.
4) Slit approx 1/3 inch wide strip with a knife and by using two fingers roll out from the edge of the paratha to the other into the shape of a cone. Now from the top edge of the rolled raw paratha, lift and fold it backwards.
5) Once again roll out the paratha into a circular shape. And start rolling the paratha with the help of fingers into one long even roll (until it can be stretched without breaking)
6) Smear little clarified butter so that the dough can stick together when up
7) Roll it like a Swiss roll. Press and stick the outer end against the roll’s immediate surface. Flatten out the roll into a circular shape for cooking. Prepare the remaining rolls.
8) Your Laccha Paratha should now be heated on a tawa or griddled over a medium flame. Place the raw laccha paratha on a hot tava. When you see tiny bubbles rise on the surface, flip it upside down. And cook until its golden brown.
