Recipe Notes
  1. Greasing the Tawa with oil before placing paratha on it is optional. (If you want to make it less oily then apply the oil directly on the paratha after it gets cooked on one side as instructed).
  2. You can make partha of any shape and thickness as you like.
  3. Try to chop the onions as small as you can. Do not squeeze the onions or make the stuffing much ahead of time, as this will make your stuffing watery. Make the stuffing just 5 minutes before you want to make paratha.
  4. You can add paneer or cheese to the stuffing, if you like.
