Method

    For the dough

    How to proceed

    1. Divide the dough into 21 balls and roll each ball into thin rounds of equal size.
    2. Cook 7 rounds lightly on a tava (griddle).
    3. On one uncooked round, spread 1 tablespoon of the carrot stuffing and cover with a cooked round. Then spread 1 tablespoon of the green peas stuffing, put another uncooked round on the top and press firmly to seal the edges.
    4. Cook the double decker parathas on a tava (griddle) on both sides with the help of a little ghee.
    5. Serve hot.
