Made parota for the first time following Cham's recipe and it was a perfect one..
Ingredients
2 cups of maida (all purpose flour)
Salt to taste
2 tsp oil
Hot water
1/4 tsp baking soda
Make a soft dough of the maida, salt, baking soda and hot water. Knead well and spread the oil over it. Keep covered for atleast 2 -3 hrs.
Make small balls of it. Roll out a ball into the thinest possible chapati. Spread some oil all over it and fold it into pleats like fan. Now roll it up to get a spiral shape. Press with less pressure to roll out and then cook it on hot tava in medium flame with some oil. Allow it to cook on both sides to get brown spots over it.
Serve hot with kurma.
