Ingredients
  

  • 250 g Wholewheat Flour
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Water As required for kneading
  • 5 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 2 tbsp Coriander Finely chopped
  • Ghee Clarified butter

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Use your fingertips to rub the oil into the flour until it's well incorporated.
  • Gradually add water to the mixture, kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and pliable.
  • Cover the dough and let it rest for approximately 1 hour.
  • Once the dough has rested, divide it into 8 equal portions.
  • Take each portion and roll it out into a small round shape. Sprinkle minced garlic and chopped coriander leaves over the surface.
  • Fold the round dough in half, ensuring that the garlic and coriander are covered, and then fold it again to create a quarter shape.
  • Roll out the quartered dough into a round paratha.
  • Heat a pan or tava and place the paratha on it. Cook on medium heat until golden brown spots appear on one side, then flip it over and cook the other side.
  • Spread a little ghee on each side and cook for a few more seconds until the paratha turns crispy and golden.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions and serve the garlic parathas hot, accompanied by yogurt or pickle on the side.

Notes

This recipe incorporates whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
Adjust the amount of garlic according to your personal preference.
Ensure that the dough is well-kneaded and rested to achieve soft parathas.
Ghee enhances the flavour of the parathas but can be substituted with oil for a vegan-friendly alternative.
The parathas are best enjoyed when served hot, straight from the pan.
