Lachha paratha is north Indian flat bread recipe which can be enjoyed with various types of curries. It is called lachha paratha because ‘lachhe’ means layers in punjabi as it is multilayered paratha.
Traditionally lachha paratha is made with all purpose flour in a tandoor. But in this recipe, you can easily make it on tawa at home and can make it more healthy by using whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour.
Whole wheat flour provides more fibers and nutrients than All purpose flour. Percentage of gluten formation is less in case of whole wheat flour compared to all purpose flour because all purpose flour becomes more elastic when kneeded which develops gluten. So whole wheat flour is a healthy option.
