Mix all the ingredients for stuffing and keep it seperately.
Make small round balls of the dough. Then flatten the balls with a rolling pin and form thin circular shapes like small rotis (indian bread).
In the center of the paratha add half of fennel seeds stuffing and make all the ends meet. Twist and slightly press the joint formed to the centre of the stuffed paratha. Now slowly roll and make a nice round paratha out of it. Be careful you don't roll it too much or else the stuffing will come out of the paratha.
Take a flat pan ( tawa) and heat it on high flame for three minutes. Now add 1 tbsp of oil and place the paratha. After few seconds flip the paratha upside down and again spread 1 tbsp of oil all over it and repat this procedure without adding oil till the paratha is nice crispy and brown in color.
Paratha is ready to eat!!! You can serve it with any pickle or with yoghurt.
Thanks a ton for this recipe
