Interesting facts and tips :
Here, are some tips on how to stuff paratha in restaurant style: • Make sure that the dough is perfect! By perfect we mean that it should be correctly elastic and pliable and not too soft nor too hard. You can add ½ cup of maida to 1 cup of whole wheat atta if you are okay with using maida. • Add ghee, oil or butter while kneading the dough to make it soft and pliable. • Use lukewarm water to knead the dough. • Once the dough is ready, let it rest for at least 10-15 minutes. • You can use any filling, here we have used potato filling. Make sure whatever filling you use should not be soggy. It should have moisture but once you round it within your fist it should turn into a ball. • Ensure that while making the parathas the stuffing is at room temperature not too hot nor too cold. • Do not overstuff the parathas with too much of filling. Just add 1-2 tablespoon of filling depending upon the size of your dough. • Always use dry flour to dust the rolling surface and the paratha repeatedly while rolling it. Follow the above tips to learn how to stuff the parathas well! Enjoy your stuffed parathas along with curd, pickles or chutneys!

Success!

We hope you had fun making it! Enjoy the meal.
