Ingredients
- 2 cups Wheat Flour
- 1 cup Mint Leaves Washed & Chopped

- 2 tablespoon Oil
- 1 teaspoon Chaat Masala
- 1 teaspoon Pepper Powder
- 2 teaspoon Cumin Powder
- 1 tablespoon Ghee (Clarified butter) For Brushing Cooked Paratha
Instructions
Preparing Dough
- Take a mixing bowl. Add wheat flour, mint leaves, salt and mix well. Add oil and mix thoroughly
- Add water little by little and knead it to a soft dough. Keep this dough aside for 15 mins
Prepare Spice Powders
- In a small bowl, mix cumin powder along with pepper powder and chaat masala. Set this spice powder aside.
Prepare Parathas
- After 15 minutes, in a clean surface or chopping board, keep the dough. Grease our hands with oil and knead the dough again for couple of minutes. Make equal sized big lemon sized balls (twice the size of lemon). I got 8 balls out of the dough. Take each dough ball and flatten with your fingers and dust it with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough ball to a 10 inch diameter thin roti. Pour ½ a teaspoon of oil on the rolled roti, Sprinkle the spice powders we prepared in the earlier step and spread it with your fingers.
- Now, hold the roti and fold it alternatively till the end. Slowly and gently, roll the paratha from one end till the other end and gently tuck in the other end on he bottom of the rolled paratha as shown in the picture. Flatten the rolled paratha and then dust it in flour
- Again using a rolling pin, roll the paratha to a 6 inch diameter paratha. Repeat the same for the rest of the dough balls. You can see the beautiful layered paratha after you roll it. Heat a tawa and add rolled layered paratha and cook on one side till you see bubbles.
- Flip the paratha to other side and apply some oil / butter. Again flip it on the other side and apply oil. Flip it again and again till the paratha is cooked completely and are nicely brown in color. Repeat the same for the rest of the rolled lacha paratha.
