Parotta

Description

Parotta is a flaky, layered flatbread popular in South India, especially in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and parts of Sri Lanka. Made from refined flour, it is kneaded into a soft dough, rolled out, and then folded multiple times to create its signature layers. The dough is then shallow fried on a griddle, giving it a crispy exterior and soft, chewy interior. Parotta is often enjoyed with a variety of side dishes, such as spicy curries, korma, or dhal, making it a versatile and beloved comfort food. It’s especially popular for breakfast or dinner and is a staple in South Indian and Sri Lankan cuisine.
