This recipe turns soft parathas into crisp, scoopable nachos by controlling dough hydration, cooking stages, and final baking. Using Aashirvaad 100% MP Sharbati Atta ensures smooth dough, clean rolling, and a light crunch without hardness. Paired with fresh salsa and creamy guac, these nachos balance texture, freshness, and flavour in every bite.
Add Aashirvaad 100% MP Sharbati Atta to a wide bowl and mix in salt. Pour in the oil and rub it lightly through the flour. Gradually add water and knead into a soft, smooth dough. Thanks to the atta’s enhanced water absorption, the dough comes together without cracks and feels pliable, not sticky. Rest for 15 minutes.

Rolling Thin
Divide the rested dough into equal portions and roll each into a thin paratha using minimal dry atta. The naturally uniform grains of MP Sharbati wheat allow even rolling without excessive dusting. Brush both sides lightly with oil so the surface stays supple during cooking and later crisps evenly.

Tawa Cooking
Heat a tawa on medium and cook each paratha until light golden spots appear on both sides. Avoid pressing or overcooking; the goal is to cook the dough through while keeping it flexible. Remove and cool completely so steam escapes before cutting.

Cut & Crisp
Once cooled, cut the parathas into triangles. Arrange on a baking tray, brush lightly with oil, and bake at 180°C for 10–12 minutes, flipping once. The parathas dry out slowly and turn crisp without hardening, forming sturdy nachos with clean edges.

Fresh Salsa
Combine tomatoes, onion, green chilli, and coriander in a bowl. Add salt and lemon juice just before serving. Mixing just before serving keeps the salsa bright and prevents excess moisture from softening the nachos.

Chunky Guac
Mash avocado lightly, leaving small chunks. Fold in the onions, green chilli, salt, and lemon juice. The texture should stay creamy yet spoonable, not whipped, so it clings to the nachos instead of sliding off.

Assemble & Serve
Arrange crisp paratha nachos on a platter with salsa and guacamole alongside. Serve immediately while the nachos hold their crunch and warmth contrasts with the fresh dips.
