    Ajwain Paratha Recipe

    Now coming to the recipe. It is actually a simple paratha, But I am going to flavour it with carom seeds and shape it in square to make it even more fancy. I am going to give a clear step by step picture to show you how to make the perfect square paratha along with a video.

    About Ajwain Paratha Recipe

    I love the flavour of carom seeds in my parathas. For those folks who are new to carom seeds, it has a flavour very similar to oregano, but very very strong spice. So you only need a little amount. If you add a ton of it in your paratha, It ruins the whole thing. So be stingy on it. But the cool thing is the paratha stays so soft and you have so many layers in it.

          Thanks for your reply Aarthi. How do I get the dough soft - I hear that warm water makes the dough soft? Thanks.

            Yes u can use warm water. Also resting the dough for 30 mins will make it soft
