Crispy Pulav ParanthaPulao paratha finds its origin in the need to use the leftover Pulao from last evening. I learned it in my in law’s house and they really are a unique way of re-using the rice in a creative way rather than throwing them out.

My husband says that his mom used to make them from the left over pulav from last night and all his friends in school used to simply love the unique paratha.

As a matter of fact, paratha is a dish which is so accommodating and flexible that you can bank on it for using any leftover sabzi! Just stuff it in paratha and enjoy it as a snack anytime! So clever na!!

Eat hot parathas with sweet curd (dahi) to enjoy the heaven on earth.
