Wheat Paratha (Plain Paratha)

In India different types of paratha are available. But traditionally  in all the houses mostly plain paratha is prepared for day to day food. Well I am also found of different paratha like onion paratha, pigeon peas paratha, mooli paratha, palak paneer paratha, etc. Today I will share with you basic paratha and then we can move further with all the paratha which I mentioned. I just love all these paratha.

For making wheat flour paratha you will need :-

2 cups of whole wheat flour
1 cup of water
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon Cumin seeds
4-5 tablespoon oil
Oil for shallow frying

Take a big bowl preferably broad in size and add whole wheat flour to it and add salt and cumin seeds and mix it. Then add oil to it and mix properly. Add little water at time and kneat a dough not too soft nor too tight. When it gets combined cover it allow it to rest for about 10-15 minutes.  Take a small proportion of dough (golf size) ball and then roll it. Take a griddle and allow it to get hot, after that put paratha on it and allow it to roast it on one side and then flip it over. Allow to cook another side also. Take about 1 teaspoon of oil and apply it on paratha and same way do another side after it gets fliped. Roast till light golden spots are seen or it is cooked properly both sides.

Enjoy with your favorite subji.
