Ulta Tawa Paratha is quite famous in the streets of Lucknow. A dish made during the days of the Nawabs and served with kebabs and sheeks. Since olden days you find inverted dome shaped griddles all over Lucknow which are used to make different kinds of breads like rumali roti and ulta tawa ka paratha. 

We have used a normal roti pan to make these melt in  your mouth, soft, Nawabi Tawa Parathas. Flavoured with saffron, rose water and khewra, these parathas are easy to make and makes a great accompaniment to any gravy. 

Addition of semolina along with all purpose flour adds a great texture to the Nawabi Tawa Parathas. The colors of saffron infused the the parathas just makes you want to eat them up as soon as they are cooked.

Serve Nawabi Tawa Parathas along with Paneer MakhaniVeg Tunday Kabab and Kachumber Salad Recipe With Cucumber, Onion & Tomatoes for a delicious weekend dinner.
