  6. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and make balls of each portion

  11. Now pour around 1/2 Tsp. Oil or Ghee from the side of the Paratha and reduce the flame.

Notes

  • In case you are not making the Paratha, the dough can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I do the same.
  • If Making on the same day, give the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before making the Paratha.
  • Instead of Green Chili, you can use Red Chili Powder.
  • Curd can be skipped and replaced with the required water.
