Instant Kitchenette Tip

• Always knead a soft and little sticky dough to make stuffed paratha.
• If the potato mixture becomes sticky roast the mixture on a medium flame for 5 - 6 minutes in a non-stick pan, start working when it comes to room temperature.
• Add any pickle masala to the mixture(stuffing) to enhance the flavor.
