About

Kerala Porotta is a popular flatbread from the Indian state of Kerala. It is made from maida flour, salt, and water, and is usually served with a variety of curries and stews. The dough is kneaded and flattened into thin sheets, which are then layered and cooked on a hot griddle. The result is a flaky, layered flatbread that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
