Divide the dough and the filling into equal portions,flatten the dough to a 3 inch disc and keep the stuffing in it.Gently pull the edges to the center,seal it and flatten it.Now on a floured surface, roll each flattened ball gently to a desired thickness.
Heat a griddle on a medium flame and cook the parathas both sides.
Serve it with pickle and yogurt.
Enjoy.....

  • Ginger and garlic paste can be added for extra taste and flavor.
  • A tsp of carom seeds can be mixed in the flour while making the dough which gives a nice aroma and aids digestion.
  • Amchur powder can also be added for extra tangy taste.
  • Dusting it with all purpose flour(maida) helps the rolling easy.
