This childhood favorite is the epitome of UAE street food with some claiming it's become an unofficial national dish. The hot and flaky paratha smothered in cheese, perfectly complements the crunch of the spicy Chips Oman, making it the perfect snack for any time of day.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup wholemeal flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • Kraft cheese spread

  • Chips Oman

  • Tabasco sauce

PREPARATION

1. Sift flour into a bowl, then add salt and mix.

2. Add 1/2 cup of water and mix using your hands until it forms a dough.

3. Drizzle olive oil over the dough and knead some more forming it into a ball. Cover with towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.

4. Divide the dough equally into 4 small sections, and spread them out on a floured surface to about 1cm thickness.

5. Add a few drops of olive oil to a skillet on high heat and cook the paratha on both sides. Turn it over when you see it begin to bubble lightly. Remove from pan once it’s browned.

6. Repeat the process with the rest of the parathas.

7. Once all the parathas are ready, spread a generous amount of Kraft cheese onto each paratha and top it with chips Oman and a dash of Tabasco sauce. Roll them closed and enjoy with a cup of tea.
