Ingredients

  • 4 cups Maida
  • 2 cups Wheat Flour
  • 100 gm Ghee
  • 100 ml Milk
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Parotta has to be prepared in 2 - 1 ratio of Maida - Atta (Wheat flour).
  • Take a big bowl and mix maida and atta with salt. Rub in Ghee and mix well.
  • Then, add milk. Mix it well to form a dough. Add required water to get a soft yet little stiff dough.
  • Take a wet muslin cloth and cover the dough and keep aside for 30 mins.
  • Then, make balls of the required size. Roll out by applying maida.
  • Once you get a big circle, add ghee, and sprinkle Maida on the top. Fold it like in the photo.
  • Roll it with oil. Make sure you don't put lot of pressure while rolling to keep the layers intact.
  • Put it on a hot tawa and fry it with oil.
  • Remove from tawa and press it as I show. This is to get the layers free.
  • Your layered parotta is ready.
