Experience authentic Kerala cuisine with our signature Kizhi Parotta - a traditional parcel-cooked meal where soft, hand-layered porotta is wrapped in a banana leaf with your choice of flavorful curry (chicken or mutton), then slow-cooked to perfection. This traditional method infuses the porotta with rich, aromatic flavors, creating a unique dining experience that captures the essence of Kerala's street food culture.
Kizhi Parotta is a beloved traditional Kerala dish that represents the pinnacle of South Indian street food. At The Porotta Hut, we prepare this specialty using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Our hand-layered porottas are made fresh daily, achieving the perfect balance of crispy exterior and soft, flaky layers inside.
What makes our Kizhi Parotta truly special is the slow-cooking process. After wrapping the porotta with your choice of authentic Kerala curry in a banana leaf, we gently steam-cook the parcel. This traditional method allows the porotta to absorb the rich flavors of the curry, the aromatic essence of the banana leaf, and the fragrant spices, creating a harmonious blend that's both comforting and deeply satisfying. It's a must-try dish that brings the authentic taste of Kerala's street food to Calgary.
