Talk:Parotta

Update

Hello, you guys. I will be updating this page soon. There is no point in merging the two articles. It's almost the same thing! — Preceding unsigned comment added by BabyPoochies (talk • contribs) 16:59, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Merger history

For the record, on 10 September 2009 User:NickPenguin merged Malabari paratha with Kerala porotta, and the latter was merged into Parotta on 27 February 2012‎ by User:Linguisticgeek. There's quite a bit of discussion on Talk:Kerala porotta and Talk:Malabari paratha.FlagSteward (talk) 12:34, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Paratha

Is this different from paratha? Can the difference be explained. From reading the lead sections of both articles they sound the same... Shofet tsaddiq (talk) 18:29, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

No, there's no difference worth having separate pages, at best there are only poorly-defined variations and this page has very poor citations. I made the merge and redirected this page without further discussion as it was obvious and nobody else seemed to have cared to answer your query in all this time.

Also, if an admin / file mover sees this, please move the Gallery from this page over to paratha. AlternateCurrent (talk) 04:03, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

@AlternateCurrent, this article still exists as a separate article. Did the merger not happen for some reason? I'm with you with merging this article with Paratha. PrathuCoder (talk) 22:30, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

Paratha is made of atta/wheat flour whereas Parotta is made of Maida. Parotta is also layered, flakey and stretchy owing to the Miada while Paratha is tougher and not layered. Paratha is also stuffed while Parotta is never stuffed with vegetables. It is also to note Parotta is South Indian and while Paratha is North Indian and are clearly separate dishes 116.87.59.58 (talk) 09:10, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
