Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • Wheat Flour - 2 cups
  • Oil - 2 tbs
  • Salt - to taste
  • Ghee - 1/4 cup

Instructions
 

Procedure

  • In a bowl mix together wheat flour, salt and oil.
  • Add enough water to make a soft dough.
  • Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
  • Divide into 6 equal portions.
  • Roll each ball into a thin disc. If it is very soft, dust the counter with flour and then roll.
  • Once thin, apply a thin layer of ghee on the disc.
  • Using a pizza cutter, cut the disc into thin stripes. The more thinner the stripes, the more flakier the parathas will be.
  • Gather all the stripes together.
  • Roll into a tight coil and tuck the end under the coil.
  • Roll it into a thick disc.
  • Cook the paratha on a hot tawa, flipping it until both sides are nicely browned.
  • Drizzle some ghee while cooking.
  • Once done, crush the paratha between your palms to reveal the layers.
  • Serve hot with a gravy of your choice.
