Detailed step-by-step description of how to cook the dish "Parathas". Try it by all means
- Sift the flours and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the water. Use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to stir until mixture just comes together, then use your hands to mix until a soft dough forms. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside for 30 minutes to rest.
- Divide dough into 8 portions and cover with a clean tea towel. Use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out 1 portion of dough to a 15cm disc. Brush with ghee and fold in half. Brush with ghee and fold in half again. Roll out dough to a 5mm-thick disc. Repeat with the remaining dough and ghee.
- Heat a heavy-based frying pan over medium-high heat. Place 2 portions of dough in pan and cook, pressing the edges with a metal spatula to make the bread puff. Cook for 3 minutes or until browned. Turn and cook for a further 3 minutes or until browned and puffed.
- Transfer parathas to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining dough portions.
- Serve parathas immediately.
