Add the chana dal and cook for a minute.

How to proceed

Roll out a portion of the dough into a circle of 4” diameter.
Place a portion of the stuffing at the centre and bring the edges together at the centre to seal tightly.
Roll out again into a circle of 6” diameter, using little whole wheat flour.
Heat a tava and cook the paratha, using little oil, till golden brown spots appear on both the sides.
