I got this recipe from the renowned Indian chef Sanjeev Kapoor’s collection and it is so easy that the very first time I tried it, they turned out perfect – http://www.sanjeevkapoor.com/bidari-parantha.aspx

This recipe calls for whole wheat flour as well as all purpose flour. Sieve both together so that they mix well. Add the semolina which gives it a nice grainy texture and the salt. Add water little by little till it comes together into a firm but pliable dough. Wrap it in damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

Divide into small portions and roll out each into oval shape of around half inch thickness. Deep fry one by one.

3

The oil for frying should be piping hot, the parathas will fluff up and when it turns golden brown remove it with a slotted spoon.
