India, Jan. 28 -- Sattu paratha is a traditional breakfast that comes from the eastern regions of India, especially Bihar and parts of Uttar Pradesh. It is made using sattu, a flour prepared from roasted chana, which has been a staple in rural kitchens for generations. This paratha was valued for its ability to keep people active for long hours during physically demanding days.

The origin of sattu dates back to ancient Indian food practices, where roasting grains and pulses was used to improve shelf life and digestion. Sattu gained importance as an everyday ingredient because it required no elaborate cooking and could be turned into filling meals quickly. Stuffing it inside a paratha made it easier to eat and more satisfying.
