Yesterday I made something from your blog too, but finding that was hard. Create a recipe Index or put a monthly recipes column on the side bar so we can find the recipes quickly!:))

wonderful parathas my dear, such a huge heap of them....

Laavanya said...

Good looking parathas Kajal - as always.. perfectly made. My dad used to roll them out like this but he used to spread some oil or ghee on the paratha before folding. Used to love the layers it had and the soft, fluffiness.

Padma said...

What can I say after looking at that big pile of parathas...simply superb dear!

Hey Kajal, go here and choose Search Widget to install in your blog if you like. All I have to do is type Paratha and I will get your Paratha instead searching the whole month every time! Hope you will!:))

Kajal, I was now saying that I would make these for coffee's event only to see that you have done so too. You got yours from Pooja and I was going to get mine from you (lol). Have to keep searching and hope I can make something in time for this weekend's post.

Nevertheless, I've bookmarked your step by step process to make these.

Kajal said...

Hi Bhags,

Thanks a lottttttttttttttt........
Enjoy your day.:)

Kajal said...

Hello Laavanya,

Yes you are right but I avoid to use more oil so I don’t spread the oil over the paratha before folding but I use milk for making dough so it’s become soft. Thank you.:))

Kajal said...

Hiiiiiiiii Padma,

Your words are superb my dear. Thanks for your lovely words.:)

Kajal said...
