- Apply ghee on top, fold into a triangle or into pleats and roll out again after dusting with flour.
- Heat a tawa and cook the parathas on both sides.

Notes
Notes: The recipe called for only all purpose flour, I made it healthy by adding more atta than maida.
I love ajwain as adding that gives a whole new taste, I add it to puris, samosas, etc.
