masala lachha paratha recipe | masala laccha paratha | masala lachha parantha with detailed photo and video recipe. perhaps one of the spicy and lip-smacking layered parantha recipe made with wheat flour with spice toppings. the paratha is prepared very similarly to any other, but the layering and spice topping makes it unique flatbread. it is an ideal bread recipe which can be easily shared and served for breakfast, lunch and dinner with different types of curries and raita’s.
i have posted quite a few lachha paratha recipes till now, but this recipe of spicy masala lachha paratha is unique. it is unique for its layered consistency with spice coating in each layer. spice coatings help to completely ignore the curry or any side dish options. adding the spice is subject to individual preference and can vary as per choice. in this, i have added the combination of chilli powder, garam masala, fenugreek leaves to get the flavoured lip-smacking layered bread. i personally feel this combination is well balanced and should be appreciated from everyone, but you can lower or increase the spice heat by adjusting the chilli powder or garam masala.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the masala lachha paratha recipe. firstly, while preparing the dough i have used only wheat flour to make it more healthy and digestible. but if you wish to explore, you can add plain flour in 1:1 ratio to make it more layer friendly. you can also make it with 2:1 ratio too. secondly, you may add the spices directly to the flour while kneading the dough. this may help in reducing steps while kneading the dough but may cause an issue while layering. hence i would recommend topping the spice while layering. lastly, these spiced masala paratha’s do not need any extra side dish or gravy as it does have all the flavour within it. but it would taste great with a hint of raita or pickle to make it more lip-smacking.
