Super Easy Crispy Parathas (Ready in Minutes!)
Hey everyone! Today's recipe is a game-changer for busy mornings or when you want something delicious in a flash. These parathas are crazy crispy and tasty, but the best part? You don't have to spend ages kneading dough!
Here's what you'll need:
- 1 cup of milk (any kind works!)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- A pinch of black pepper
- (Optional) 1/2 teaspoon of chili flakes (if you like things spicy)
- (Optional) Some finely chopped green chilies (for a fresh kick)
- Finely chopped coriander leaves (fresh cilantro)
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour (sieved if you can, but no worries if not)
- Oil or ghee for cooking
How to make it:
- Easy Mix: In a bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, salt, pepper, chili flakes (if using), green chilies (if using), and coriander.
- Batter Up!: Slowly add the flour, mixing until you have a smooth batter that's a little on the thin side. This is the secret to crispy perfection!
- Crispy Time: Heat a pan or griddle over medium heat. Add a little oil or ghee. Pour some batter in the pan and spread it out. Turn up the heat a bit and cook until the bottom starts to set and turn golden.
- The Flip: Drizzle some oil or ghee around the edges, then gently loosen the paratha with a spatula and flip it over. Cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat & Enjoy!: Keep making parathas this way until you've used all the batter. Adjust the heat as needed. Serve hot with your favorite chutney or yogurt.
Tips:
- Don't stress about mixing perfectly. A few lumps are okay!
- Using a non-stick pan can make flipping easier.
- Like it more spicy? Add more chili flakes! Want more freshness? Go crazy with the green chilies!
- These parathas are so versatile, you can eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even as a snack!
Enjoy your delicious and crispy creation!
