Indian Breakfast – The wholesome meal of Parathas

♣ Known as one of the best and popular breakfasts of India, ‘Parathas’(Stuffed Bread) are a healthy, delicious and filling food. Anyone would agree that the best way to start a morning with a good appetite would be to indulge yourself into some steaming hot butter-dripping ‘parathas’.

♣ A paratha is a flat bread that originated in the Indian subcontinent. It is usually made with whole-wheat flour, pan fried in ghee(melted butter) or cooking oil, and often stuffed with vegetables, especially boiled potatoes, radish or cauliflower and/or paneer (Indian cheese).

♣ The paratha can be flavoured with different herbs and spices, rolled, stuffed or just eaten as an accompaniment to meat, poultry, fish and vegetable dishes and make an exceptional addition/replacement to rice.
