In a bowl, combine salt and whole wheat flour. Add 1 teaspoon of ghee to the little well you've created in the centre. With your fingertips, combine this until it resembles breadcrumbs
Step 1
Step 2
Slowly add warm water while kneading the mixture to create a soft, elastic dough. If necessary, add up to one tablespoon more water
Step 3
Roll out a piece of dough the size of a golf ball into a thin circle. The better, the thinner
Step 4
Apply a thin coating of dry atta or whole wheat flour over the ghee after brushing with a teaspoon of melted ghee
Step 5
Making small pleats as you go, begin to pleat it from one side. This lengthened, pleated dough should be rolled into a ball after being stretched. To prepare lachha parathas, dusted it with flour and rolled it into a 5-inch round
Step 6
Make a tawa heated all over. Cook the paratha for two to three minutes. Flip it once bubbles begin to appear
Step 7
Place the partially cooked paratha straight over the flame using tongs, then cook it over an open flame, flipping it every few seconds to ensure it is cooked through
Step 8
Apply ghee or butter once the paratha is crisp and golden brown. With your hands, crumple it up to uncover the layers. Serve warm
