Garlic Paratha with Liquid Dough

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
   • In a bowl, combine 1 cup of flour and 1 teaspoon of salt.
2. Add Herbs and Garlic:
   • Finely chop your choice of greens (dill, cilantro, parsley, mint) and add them to the bowl.
   • Grate 1-2 garlic cloves using a fine grater and add them to the bowl.
   • Sprinkle in your favorite spices (such as cumin, coriander, or paprika) to enhance the flavor.
3. Add Liquid Ingredients:
   • Pour in 200 ml of water and 1 teaspoon of melted butter. Mix well until you have a smooth, liquid dough.

Step 2: Cook the Paratha

1. Heat the Pan:
   • Add a little oil to a non-stick frying pan and heat it over low to medium heat.
2. Pour the Dough:
   • Pour a portion of the liquid dough into the pan, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon or a spatula to form a round flatbread.
3. Fry the Paratha:
   • Fry the paratha for a couple of minutes on each side until it starts to puff up and turns golden brown.
4. Flatten and Turn:
   • Turn over the paratha and gently press it with a spatula to help it cook evenly and puff up. Cook for another 1-2 minutes on each side until fully cooked and puffed.

Step 3: Serve

• Serve Hot:
  • The parathas are best enjoyed hot. You can eat them plain, with a bit of butter spread on top, or cut them open to fill with your favorite stuffing.
