Dhaniya Paratha

🇮🇳 Indian

Coriander paratha, herb-heavy and griddle-crisped. Rolled, rested and flame-kissed — the real thing. Best with a rich gravy and sliced raw onions.

Prep 32 min Cook 14 min Serves 4 Medium

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Green Chili2
  • Ghee3 tbsp
  • Fresh Cilantro1/2 cup, chopped
  • Wheat Flour3 cups

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine flour, salt and water into a shaggy mass, then knead till smooth and supple; rest covered 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Rest the dough, covered with a damp cloth, for at least 30 minutes — gluten relaxes, rolling gets easier.

  3. 3

    Portion the dough, stuff and pinch the seams closed, then roll with a feather touch so nothing bursts.

  4. 4

    Cook the first side dry, the second side with ghee, and finish directly on the flame for the puff.

  5. 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.
