Re: Puri Paratha

@AFayiz

I dont know when you have lately eaten it and yes its a dish from punjab. I am from Lahore and just eaten it 2.5 months back. The original one is stuffed with mash daal but may be i dont use word stuffing as stuffing is unlike aaloo paratha or any other stuffed paratha. However the mash daal is either kneaded in the dough or used when frying Pathoora. It has the chunks of maash daal and the Khokhaas that sell not in good quality may simply dont use it or use very less. Hoever if you eat it from Anarkali, Rang mehal or food street in Lahore they have ample daal maash in it which gives it a great taste and distinguishes it from poori

Look back to the picture KKF posted. That is what I’m talking about. I’ve never had a “pathoora” from Lahore, so I’m sure you are correct in that description. I’m talking about Cholay Bathura you get from Indian dhabas…I’ve had it plenty of times at the homes of my Sikh and Indian Punjabi Hindu friends and it’s never been stuffed with daal…I think we’re taking about two different things.
