Make Madurai’s Famous Crispy And Fluffy Bun Parotta At Home

 Absolutely! Madurai’s Bun Parotta is legendary—fluffy, crisp-edged, and decadently layered. Here's how you can recreate that street-style magic right at home:


🍞 Madurai-Style Bun Parotta Recipe

(Crispy outside, soft & fluffy inside)

🧂 Ingredients:

  • All-purpose flour (Maida) – 2 cups

  • Sugar – 1 tsp

  • Salt – 1 tsp

  • Baking soda – 1/4 tsp

  • Curd (yogurt) – 2 tbsp

  • Water – as needed

  • Oil – for kneading and cooking (generous amounts!)

  • Egg – 1 (optional, for extra softness)


👩‍🍳 Method:

1. Prepare the Dough

  • In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and curd.

  • Add egg (if using) and start mixing.

  • Gradually add water and knead into a very soft, slightly sticky dough.

  • Apply 2 tbsp of oil and knead for at least 10–15 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  • Rest the dough for 2–3 hours, covered with a damp cloth.


2. Portion and Rest Again

  • Divide the dough into medium-sized balls (like a lemon).

  • Grease your hands and coat each ball with oil.

  • Let them rest for another 30–60 minutes—this helps with layering.


3. Stretch and Fold

  • On a greased surface, take one dough ball and spread it paper-thin (like you’re stretching a pizza base).

  • Fold it like a paper fan or pleated ribbon, then roll it into a spiral bun shape (like a cinnamon roll).

  • Slightly flatten it with your palm. Do this for all dough balls.


4. Cook the Parottas

  • Heat a tawa or flat griddle on medium flame.

  • Place the parotta and cook both sides with generous oil or ghee, pressing gently for fluffiness.

  • Fry until both sides are golden brown and crisp.


5. Fluff It Up (Madurai Style)

  • Once all parottas are done, stack 2-3 and clap them together (lightly) to separate the layers and add fluffiness.
