achari paratha recipe | achari lachha paratha | lachhedar paratha in pickle masala with detailed photo and video recipe. one of the unique and spicy layered paratha recipe made with pickle masala topping. unlike any other traditional lachha paratha, this does not come with the baggage of an extra side dish for it as it is already loaded with it. it is crisp, flaky and can be easily served for lunch and dinner with a simple choice of yoghurt salad or any pickle.
flaky or lachha paratha is always my favourite type of paratha due to its layered texture. i guess if you have followed my blog it is very much evident with the types of lachha paratha i have posted till now. my previous post of masala lachha paratha was very well appreciated and i started to receive more and more requests to post different types of layered paratha. hence continuing the tradition, i am posting a unique spicy paratha recipe with pickle taste in each bite. the advantage of this paratha compared to others is you do not an extra topping of a pickle as a side dish. you may easily relish this paratha with a creamy yoghurt or curd to make it a complete meal.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the achari paratha recipe. firstly, if you are running short of time you may use the store-bought pickle masala instead of preparing it from scratch. as matter of fact, you can also use the actual pickle and mix it with dough rather than applying it while rolling. secondly, the dough is prepared with just wheat flour which makes it an ideal and healthy paratha. but to make it tastier, you may add a 1:1 ratio of wheat and plain flour. lastly, with the pickle masala you may also use other types of topping to the paratha. you may use tomato sauce, chutney, garam masala, schezwan sauce and goda masala.
