Paratha is one of the delicious and stomach filling breakfast food and very common in subcontinent. These are part of our daily meals. We make these in different styles and in various different manners to change the taste. The outer layer of paratha is made with fiber rich whole wheat flour while the filling is made with protein rich lentil and spices. This is a make ahead frozen paratha recipe but you can even serve these fresh. For dal filling in this paratha recipe check the link below on my website. Dal Filling in Pratha
