Mughlai paratha is a traditional dish originating from Bengal and dating back to the Mughal Empire. Traditionally, this street food staple consists of a deep-fried paratha stuffed with minced chicken or mutton, but there are a few versions of the dish, so it can be prepared without meat as well.

The stuffing typically contains onions, chili peppers, ginger, garlic, eggs, carrots, garam masala powder, coriander, turmeric, cumin, and amchur (dried mango powder). Once assembled, this stuffed paratha is roasted on a hot tawa or fried in oil. The dish is usually served as a snack with raita or curries.
