Stuffed Paratha with Spicy Korean Beef
Flatbread, naan, and pita are well-known staples in the hospitality industry. But Paratha – a layered, crispy flatbread from South Asia – is still relatively underused in professional kitchens. And that’s a missed opportunity, because Paratha is surprisingly versatile.
Frozen Paratha can be pan-fried or grilled in just a few minutes, turning into a flaky, airy wrap with a rich, buttery taste. Perfect for breakfast (e.g. filled with scrambled eggs, smoked salmon, and cream cheese), or as a lunch dish with miso eggplant, grilled vegetables, or – like in this recipe – spicy beef rolls with fresh vegetables.
This flatbread fits right into the growing demand for creative street food and fusion-style lunch options.
