Malabar parotta: The flaky tale of a layered delicacy | BBC News India

thanks from malabar ❤

It’s really super combination at least eat once in your life

The same style of Porota is eaten in Assam and Bengal.

Kindly also mention that it's a big ZERO on nutrition. And a growing concerns of cardiovascular disease. 🫀 ❌

Malabar parotta😅😅😅 joke

BBC will bring some stupid to tell a story without proof and they want to believe that be accepted as history 😂😂😂

In Kolkata it's known as petai parota(beaten bread) served with chick pea curry(ghugni)/aloo dum(small potato curry)....miss my hostel days...quite a regular delicacy in hostel tiffin.

Porotta made of maida is unhealthy for healthy

I have eaten many of Malabar parota. Best in the country

Rich in maida ! Wtf is great about this parotta ?

Parotta was made in northern India Punjab way before the 18th century. 😅

When I was young, my grandma use to make Porotta and Beef curry every Sunday. For a long while, for me, sunday meant Porotta and Beef. My childhood memories smells of these crispy flaky Porotta and the spicy beef curry. Even today, whenever I eat a porotta, ofcourse with beef, I remember my grandma.

Roti canai ni....it's Malaysian deyyyy!

Fascinating! I always loved Kerala Parotah 🪔🌿🥰🙏

Parotta and pork is the best.

നമ്മടെ പൊറോട്ട BBCല്‍ വരെ എത്തി

I am from Chittagong, Bangladesh.
The similar paratha is really common & popular here. But we don't call it any othrer name than "cheka paratha".
And in other parts of our country this is not found.
As this is a port city peoples came here settled down from other parts of south asia, south east asia and even from middle east & central asia in some cases.
So, many of them have brought the food culture & habits along with them.

Secret ingredient is palm-sweat.

porotta won't taste original, without that.
&
Porotta has nothing to do with arab traders.....no foking evidence for that.

Porotta is really bad for health. It's material is even used to paste political banners on public walls.

Roti Canai

Malabar porotta + spicy chilli pork is a match made in heaven. Pork>>>>>>beef. No doubt about it.

Porotta &chilly chicken/Beef 🔥🔥

BBC pls start a series of Indian food which Arab traders and Britishers enjoyed in India.

roti canai?

இந்த ஆலு பரோட்டாவை பார்த்து இருக்கமாட்டான் போல.

roti canai🇲🇾

That is roti canai in Malaysia.

Porota and beef is heavenly

Those who eat nonveg specially beef should eat my Tatti and give it to their parents as well. 😂

similar to roti canai in Malaysia..

As a Sri Lankan I'm here to confirm that Parata is one of our favorites too.

can't they afford long gloves?

Best of all porotta or bread!

As a Malayali, I love porotta with Kadala(chickpea) curry from the morning restaurants here.😂

ഇപ്പോൾ ok ആണ്

Like Biriyani...Parotta is no less an Emotion..

Love beef and pork with hot parattas❤

I hope one day Modiji and Yogiji won't ban beef or pork😢❤

Kerala porotta bro. Not malabar.

Kotta. Avande appoppandr arab😂. Arabikk arijoonda ee samanam

His sweat adds extra flavour

Porotta matches seamlessly with any side dishes. And i found one more, hot fresh porotta with masala peanut, just try it, it may seem weird how a dry porotta matches with dry masala peanut that we eat as snacks, but it tastes good. but porotta needs to be fresh and hot.

Not very nutritious

Porota beef combo ❤️‍🔥

Porotta with sambaar🔥

It's puram + attai which later evolved as porotta

Every bite is unhealthy but the taste makes you forget how unhealthy it is that's why Malayalis eat parotta daily

The Paratha like the Samosa and Jalebi came from Muslims.
