I tasted this and at once I became a huge fan ,I straight away walked to the chef and started asking what was it and how actually they do it.
The restaurant ambience was in accordance with street food theme and there was a big crowd near the stall, hence couldn’t actually get the recipe. Even after a month ,the taste of that baida paratha was lingering on my tongue. Hence thought to give a try at home. On googling found very few blogs where they had explained about baida paratha…….,as always went through all the recipes from few websites,blog and finally adapted as I needed. Well, to my surprise , though I tried for first time , Baida Roti / Baida Paratha turned out to be one of the best and yummy filling snack.
