Haha yeah paratha is a breakfast item mostly and occasionally used for other meals.

Called paratha in the north and parotta is the pronounciation in the south. (India Pakistan combined) parotta only in southern India.

Also we use 'aata' not 'maida' for homemade parathas. Aata being a wholewheat variation and maida being all purpose flour like. Not like for like comparisons due to milling techniques.

If you buy em frozen they are probably made from maida or ap flour which is objectively a better texture and more delicious but less traditional, hearty and healthy.

My family does square parathas, which I much prefer. The layers are better this way.
