Mughlai Paratha Recipe:
Moghalai Paratha is a popular street food in Bangladesh and Northern parts of India specially in West Bengal.It is a actually a type of stuffed paratha and usually eggs,keema(minced meat),onion and potatoes are used for the stuffing.It goes really well with any curry dish.Traditionally the parathas are deep fried in hot vegetable oil or ghee. Mughlai paratha was one of those mughlai recipes that entered in undivided Bengal during the Mughal Empire. Mughal rule mostly influenced the cuisine of Dhaka than rural Bangladesh. During British Rule, it became a popular tiffin snack in Calcutta.
There are many version of Mughlai paratha, although traditionally it is a non-vegetarian dish but now a days there is also a vegetarian version of Mughalai paratha in which the stuffing is done with Paneer(Indian cottage cheese) instead of egg or Keema. Some also use bread crumbs with egg instead of mashed potatoes for the stuffing. But I like to use mashed potatoes with eggs for the stuffing.💚💚💚💚
