- Apply a little oil on table top, place each ball on it and spread with your fingers to a roti.

- Heat a non-stick tawa.
- Apply a little oil on the table top, spread each dough ball into a parantha with your fingers, and place on the tawa. Cook for 1-2 minutes, flip and cook the other side for 1- 2 minutes.
