About Parotta
Parotta is a layered, flaky flatbread made from plain flour, stretched thin and folded before it is cooked on a griddle. It is everyday food in Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
Regional versions
Kerala parotta is soft with many layers. Kothu parotta is shredded on the griddle with egg, meat and spices, and Ceylon parotta is folded around a filling. Malabar parotta is another name you will see.
What to order with it
It is made for curry: beef fry, chicken curry or a vegetable kurma are the classic partners.

How this list is made
We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
