Notes
- firstly, parathas taste great when served hot as we have added cheese. you can microwave the paratha’s for 30 secs if it is cold.
- furthermore, i have added less oil, however you can add more oil or ghee while roasting to make it more tasty. you can also add vegetable ghee or dalda while heating.
- moreover, adjust the spices according to your taste. you may need to be careful while serving to kids with spicy paratha’s.
- do not over stuff the stuffing if you are beginner as it may be difficult to roll. you can also, mix stuffing to dough and than roll the paratha’s.
- lipsa das has shared a beautiful tip to make perfect paratha: “always dry roast the paratha on tava first and once both sides are slightly white, then put oil and flip it around for both sides again. otherwise the atta won’t be properly cooked and might taste raw. also, after pleating, make sure to remove the excess flour from top so that it does accumulate in the centre of paratha once u start rolling”.
