    I got this recipe through mail from my friend Sangeeta along with the aloo bhindi recipe, she wanted me to post a wide North-Indian spread, so she sent all the recipes for the spread, but I am so lazy to make all together and post, so posting one by one. This is sure a nice lunch box idea for kids and for us too. Kids will be delighted to have it for lunch box to have triangle, square parathas instead of our regular parathas. This is simpler than stuffed parathas to make in morning hours.

    Step by step pictures

    1. Mix everything in a bowl except ghee well and add water to make a smooth pliable dough. Keep aside for ½ hour and again knead and make 6-7 equal balls.

    2. Roll out first into a thin circle as we roll for usual roti and then apply ghee and fold into half,then again apply ghee and fold into quarter.

    3. Then roll it carefully to a triangle shaped paratha to desired thickness.Cook on both sides until brown spots starts to appear in medium flame. After finishing making all the parathas, give a gentle tap to define the layers.

    Serve simply with boondi raita or vegetable raita and pickle.

      Hi, Usually I am doing with out ajwain, and chilly powder. But I like the picture and raita. I will try like this. Pl. provide good lunch box side dish. My daughter likes to take only chapathi, roti only. Pl. provide ideas about different gravy and kurma.
      Yesterday, I tried your Baingan Bhartha, Its come very nice. My habby, and others enjoyed it. Thank you.

      All the ghee between the layers makes the parathas tastier! My aunt makes this and I've tried it too 🙂 The raitha balances out the extra ghee! 😉 Good pair!
