  • Combine all the ingredients mentioned under potato stuffing. Bind well. Mixture should not feel dry and when clumped together should hold the shape of lemon sized ball.
  • Heat thick bottomed skillet/tawa. Then lower heat.
  • Dip the ball of dough in plain flour, roll it out in a small disc and place the lemon-sized potato ball in the center. Seal well. Dip in flour and roll out in large flat disc shape.
  • Apply little oil with pastry brush to the tawa. Place the Paratha over the tawa. Cook till bubbles appear. Brush oil or ghee on the top surface of paratha and then flip it.
  • Apply oil or ghee to this flipped side, cook further 30-40 seconds on medium flame and flip again. Fry till both sides look golden brown.
  • For heart shaped paratha, cut out a v and round the top curved edge giving a nick in the center to resemble a heart indentation.
