Masala Paratha is a flavorful and spiced Indian flatbread that’s packed with delicious masala-infused goodness. It’s a popular variation of plain paratha, where the dough is seasoned with a blend of aromatic spices and herbs to elevate its taste.
To prepare Masala Paratha, whole wheat flour (atta) is combined with water and a pinch of salt to make a soft, pliable dough. Along with the flour, a mixture of finely chopped onions, green chilies, fresh cilantro (coriander leaves), and a medley of spices is incorporated into the dough.
The spices commonly used in Masala Paratha include cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, and sometimes chaat masala for an extra kick of flavor. The amount of spices can be adjusted according to personal preference for spice levels.
Once the dough is kneaded and well-mixed, it’s divided into small balls and rolled out into thin circles. Each circle is brushed with ghee or oil and cooked on a hot griddle (tawa) until golden brown and crispy on both sides.

Paneer Paratha is a delicious and wholesome Indian flatbread stuffed with a spiced mixture of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) and aromatic spices. This popular dish is enjoyed across India as a hearty breakfast or as a satisfying meal.
The origins of Paneer Paratha can be traced to the North Indian region, where parathas are a staple part of the cuisine. Paneer, a fresh cheese made by curdling milk with lemon juice or vinegar, adds a creamy and rich texture to the filling.
To prepare Paneer Paratha, the paneer is crumbled and mixed with finely chopped onions, green chilies, cilantro (coriander leaves), and a blend of spices such as cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric, red chili powder, and garam masala. This mixture is then used as a flavorful stuffing for the paratha.
The dough for the paratha is made from whole wheat flour, water, and a pinch of salt. Small portions of the dough are rolled out into discs, and a portion of the paneer stuffing is placed in the center. The dough is then folded over the stuffing, sealed, and rolled out again into a flatbread. The paratha is cooked on a griddle with ghee or oil until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Paneer Paratha is often served hot with yogurt, pickle, or a dollop of butter. It’s a wholesome and satisfying dish that combines the goodness of paneer with the comforting taste of freshly made flatbread.
Plain Paratha

Plain Paratha is a classic Indian flatbread that is flaky, soft, and versatile. It’s a staple in North Indian cuisine and is enjoyed as part of breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Unlike stuffed parathas like aloo paratha or paneer paratha, plain paratha is simple yet delicious.
To make Plain Paratha, whole wheat flour (atta) is kneaded into a soft dough using water and a pinch of salt. The dough is then divided into small balls and rolled out into thin circles. These circles are brushed with ghee or oil and folded into pleats to create layers.
Next, the pleated dough is rolled into a spiral and then rolled out again into a flat disc. This rolling and folding process helps create flaky layers within the paratha when cooked.
The rolled paratha is then cooked on a hot griddle (tawa) with some ghee or oil until both sides are golden brown and cooked through. The paratha is pressed gently with a spatula while cooking to ensure even cooking and to make it crispy.
