Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 1 cup Hot water
- 4 tablespoons Ghee, melted
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk, coconut flour, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add the hot water to the dry ingredients and mix well to form a dough. The dough should be sticky but manageable.
Allow the dough to rest for about 10 minutes. This will help the psyllium husk absorb moisture and make the dough more pliable.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
On a piece of parchment paper, flatten each ball slightly, and then roll it out into a thin circle using a rolling pin.
Brush a little melted ghee over the rolled-out dough. Using a knife, make a cut from the center of the circle to the outside edge.
Starting from the cut edge, roll the dough tightly into a cone shape and then flatten it again slightly to form a layered disc. This creates the characteristic flaky layers of the paratha.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, add one of the rolled-out parathas.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, brushing each side with a little ghee, until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat the process with the remaining dough portions.
Serve the Keto Malabar Paratha warm with your favorite keto-friendly curry or side dish.
