Full written recipe for Laccha paratha 3 ways
Prep time: 15-20 minutes
Cooking time: 25-30 minutes
Serves: 6-7 parathas (depending on your preferred size)
Ingredients:
For dough
Wheat flour 2 cups
Salt a pinch
Water as required
Oil as required
For pudina powder
Handful of mint leaves
Method:
For dough, add the flour and salt in a mixing bowl, mix and add water gradually as required to knead a semi soft dough, add little oil and knead for 7-8 minutes.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and rest for at least 30 minutes. By the time the dough is resting, you can make other components.
Once the dough is rested, knead it once again & divide in equal size dough balls, keep aside for making parathas.
For pudina powder, spread the mint leaves over a microwave safe plate and microwave for 3 minutes, take it out and randomly mix with hands and microwave for last 1 minutes. Allow the dried mint leaves to rest for 20-30 seconds, after resting, crush the dried leaves with hands, to make pudina powder, you can also use a grinding jar and grind to make a very fine powder.
Other way for making the pudina powder is, if you don’t have microwave, you can sundry the mint leaves until they are completely dry, and make the powder in the same way. Keep aside to be used later in making the pudina paratha.
