The Art of Flaky Madurai-Style Bun Parotta & Pepper Salna

Puffed, Crisp, and Golden

Unlike regular flat coin parottas, authentic Bun Parotta is aerated, rolled with seasoned cow ghee, and pan-toasted on heavy iron tawas until it resembles a golden bakery bun with crispy concentric swirls.

The Salna Secret

A bun parotta is only as good as the salna that bathes it. Our kitchen simmers roasted coriander seeds, dry coconut, and stone-pounded pepper with goat bones for 6 hours to create a luscious, fragrant pouring gravy.
