How to Make Methi Lachha Paratha
HideShow Media1.
First, we need to wash the methi leaves nicely and then chop them. Keep aside. In a bowl, add atta, ghee, chopped green chillies, ginger, salt, and the methi leaves. Mix well.
2.
Now, gradually add water to combine everything together and form a smooth dough. Cover it with a wet cloth and let it rest for around 20 to 30 minutes.
3.
Once done, divide the dough into equal portions. Roll out the dough evenly and spread a generous amount of ghee on it. Sprinkle some atta over it.
4.
Cut the paratha into small strips, twist, and roll them together to form a peda. Roll it out again, ensuring that the twisted layers don’t get submerged.
5.
Repeat this process with the remaining dough. Heat a tawa set on a low-medium flame and place the paratha on it. Allow it to cook until it turns golden brown, then flip and cook the other side.
6.
Apply some ghee and press it down gently to get those crispy layers. Serve hot, and enjoy!
