  9. For the Paratha:
  10. Make a small ball from the dough, flatten it a bit and place 2 tbsp of the stuffing on it.

  12. Dust the ball with some dry flour and gently roll the ball with a rolling pin, if you press it too hard then the filling may come out.
  13. Make a paratha of medium thickness (about the same thickness as a pancake).
  14. Then dry roast on a griddle/skillet/non-stick pan, on medium heat.
