Achari Paratha (Pickle Flavoured Flat Bread)


          Parathas are generally a weekend breakfast at my place. So I like experimenting with different types. So this time it is Achari Paratha, made with some homemade grated raw mango pickle. You can use any pickle of your choice. It is both flaky and crispy and it turned out real yummy. Serve it hot with yoghurt. You can also relish with any side dish, green chutney or butter. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.








  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp. oil 
  • pickle masala as required
  • some flour to sprinkle
  • oil to shallow fry





         Knead a dough with flour, salt, oil and required quantity of water. Cover and keep aside for 30 minutes. Divide into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a chapatti.

          Spread some pickle masala on it. Then sprinkle a little bit of flour. Carefully, fold it back and forth. Then roll it like a Swiss roll and flatten it. Roll out again by dusting some flour. Do the same with the rest of the dough.

          Heat a tawa / griddle and shallow fry each rolled parathas on both sides by brushing some oil over it.  Serve hot with any side dish, butter, yoghurt, green chutney or raita.
