Instructions

Prepare the Dough

Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Gradually add warm water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add oil and knead for another minute. Cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.

Assemble the Parathas

Take a small portion of the dough and roll it into a thin circle (about 6 inches in diameter).
Spread a thin layer of ghee on the rolled dough.
Sprinkle sugar evenly over the ghee.
Fold the dough in half, then into a semicircle or triangle to seal the filling.
Gently roll the stuffed dough into a slightly thicker circle.

Cook the Parathas

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or tawa over medium heat.
Place the paratha on the hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown spots appear. Apply ghee to both sides while cooking for added flavor and crispness.

Serve

Serve Chini Ka Paratha warm. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Chini Ka Paratha

For extra-flaky parathas, let the dough rest for at least an hour after kneading.
Don't overfill the parathas with sugar; a moderate amount is key to prevent them from bursting while cooking.
Adjust the amount of ghee used according to your preference; some prefer a richer, more buttery paratha.
Serve immediately with a side of yogurt or a cup of chai for a complete and satisfying experience.
