- 2 cups Maida or all purpose flour alternately you could take 1 cup maida and 1 cup aata ro whole wheat flour
- 1 tbsp garlic oil or you could use 1 tbsp ghee
- 3 tbsp kasuri methi dried fenugreek leaves
- salt as required

Make a dough with all the above ingredients. Add water very slowly. You will not need more than half a cup of water. Still, add water little by little till the dough comes together and knead for 8 to 10 minutes till you get a smooth elastic dough.
Cover the dough with a cloth and rest it for 20 minutes.
Cut the dough into small balls and start rolling them into 6 to 7 inch disks and about 2 mm thin. You will need to dust with extra flour for rolling the parathas.
Heat a tawa and place one paratha over the tawa. Cook it for a few seconds and then flip to cook the other side. Then brush the top of the paratha with ghee and turn it and cook once again.
Brush the other side and turn it and cook till the paratha becomes brown and crispy. Repeat the process with all the parathas.
Serve them hot with some achar, any side of a vegetable and some yogurt. See the serving suggestions above.
