Cooking steps for Dahi Paratha

  1. 1
    Dahi paratha is the ultimate breakfast glow-up—a soft, tangy flatbread with all the spice and everything nice! If you're ready to dive into this dahi paratha recipe, grab a mixing bowl and toss in 1 cup of whole wheat flour, 1/4 tsp cumin seeds, and a pinch of salt (or to taste because we respect your palate).
  2. 2
    Add a sprinkle of red chili powder for a lil' kick, and finely chop 1-2 green chilies for some extra heat.
  3. 3
    Toss in 1/4 cup of fresh, fragrant coriander leaves and mix in 1/2 tsp kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves) because that's where the real flavor party starts.
  4. 4
    Now add 1/2 tsp garam masala—just a hint of spice to keep it cozy. The star of this show is 1/2 cup of curd (yep, the dahi we're obsessed with), which gives the dough its dreamy softness and subtle tang.
  5. 5
    Add 1 tbsp of oil to keep everything smooth and fab.
  6. 6
    Start kneading—get your hands in there and mix until you've got a soft, pliable dough.
  7. 7
    If it's too sticky, sprinkle a little extra flour, and if it feels dry, add a tiny splash of water or more curd. Once it's perfect, let the dough take a 15-minute nap to chill (trust me, it deserves it). Roll it into equal portions, shape into balls, and flatten slightly.
  8. 8
    Dust your countertop with flour and roll each piece into a thin circle—it doesn't have to be perfect; we're going for rustic chic! Heat a tawa (or any flat griddle) on medium, and slap that bad boy on there.
  9. 9
    Flip when you see bubbles or golden spots, brushing with ghee or oil for extra crispiness. Repeat until your kitchen smells like pure happiness.
  10. 10
    Serve these dahi parathas hot with a dollop of fresh curd, spicy pickle, or even a smidge of butter if you're feeling indulgent.
