Recipes » Bread » Flat Bread
Paratha is a layered fried flat bread or pastry. This is famous in Pakistan, India, and Morocco & may be some where else. This recipe is from one of my friend. Who is from Morocco. It goes very well with fried eggs, kababs, chicken curry & you can use in burritos & shwarmas.
"I finally made this recipe. YAY!
I LOVED it... and so did my husband! I had to improvise, as I did not have a griddle, and used my 12 inch skillet. It worked very nicely. I kept my heat at med/low. I didn't use all the oil and butter the recipe called for(maybe half of it). I made about 9 pieces...they were wonderful! I will definitely be making this again. Thank you sidu..."
