Instructions
How to Make the No-Knead Paratha Batter:
1) In a mixing bowl, add 2 Tbsp. of melted butter, 3-4 cloves chopped garlic, 1 tsp red chili flake, & 1 Tbsp. chopped cilantro. Mix together and set aside.
2) In another large mixing bowl, add 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of Durum whole wheat flour (atta) and mix. Add 1 tsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt and mix again. Slowly add 2 cups of water 1 cup at a time, and whisk the mixture together to form a batter.
PRO TIP: Be sure to add the water gradually and not all at once, this will result in a smoother lump-free batter.
3) Add the butter and garlic mixture to the batter and whisk it together.
4) Cover & let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
How to Cook No-Knead Parathas:
1) In a non-stick pan on medium/low heat, add a ladle full of the batter and spread it out a bit, but not too thin.
2) Let this cook until the surface of the paratha is no longer wet, about 2 mins. It will change color and look dry, this is when it is ready to flip!
3) Once flipped, brush with ghee and cook for another 2-3 minutes on medium/high heat for a golden brown color.
4) Add ghee to the other side and cook for another minute.
5) Once browned on both sides, remove from the pan.
PRO TIP: Don't forget to lower your heat to med/low before cooking the next paratha!
6) Serve alongside your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
