Main Course

Parota

A home-style Kerala dish made with care and the kind of spice knowledge that comes from watching someone else cook it a hundred times. Each step matters, and the result is worth the effort.

Ingredientsfor 4 servings

2 cup Maida
1 nos Egg
Salt, to taste
Water, to taste
Oil/Ghee, to taste

Preparation

Step 1
Mix Maida, Salt and Egg in a mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add water and oil/ghee, knead till it turns into soft dough.
Step 3
Keep it covered for 4 hrs.
Step 4
Get a lemon size ball from the dough & roll it flat like chapathi.
Step 5
Fold that chapathi like sari pleats, then roll it from one end to the other end & apply a spoon of oil on it.
Step 6
Roll it on one side, flat like poori. Prepare all the dough like this.
Step 7
Heat a tawa and roast both sides of parotta by adding a tsp of oil.
Step 8
Remove it from heat & press it around the edeges.

Tip

When the recipe says "medium heat," it means medium. Kerala cooking is not about high-flame drama — most of the work happens at a patient, steady temperature.
