Notes
- Knead the parathas into a soft dough so that they roll out evenly and cook over very low heat to obtain a crispy consistency.
- The more layers you cut in this paratha the more crispier paratha you will enjoy.
- Make sure the tawa is hot before you put the parathas in it, and make sure the parathas are always made in ghee to add to its flavor.
- High heat burns them, and very low heat makes them tight, but high heat causes them to burn, while low heat does not burn them.
- Do not fill your paratha with excess chopped coriander leaves as the dough will be wet and it will then tough to roll the parathas.
- Dust flour while rolling if there is excess moisture.
