Dhaniya Paratha
Coriander paratha, herb-heavy and griddle-crisped. Rolled, rested and flame-kissed — the real thing. Best with a rich gravy and sliced raw onions.
Ingredients
- Saltto taste
- Green Chili2
- Ghee3 tbsp

Instructions
- 1
Combine flour, salt and water into a shaggy mass, then knead till smooth and supple; rest covered 20 minutes.
- 2
Rest the dough, covered with a damp cloth, for at least 30 minutes — gluten relaxes, rolling gets easier.
- 3
Portion the dough, stuff and pinch the seams closed, then roll with a feather touch so nothing bursts.
- 4
Cook the first side dry, the second side with ghee, and finish directly on the flame for the puff.
- 5
Slather with ghee, wrap in a clean cloth, and carry to the table warm.
Chef's tip
Resting the finished dish for five minutes off the heat lets the spices settle and deepen.
