6)and now very gently press it on the surface and start rolling it, till you are at 5-6 inches in diameter.

7)Now it’s time to make it look a little pretty so sprinkle some kalonji which is onion seeds

(totally optional)and some dhania which is cilantro

8) and using a rolling pin on it we roll it 2-3 times so the spinkled stuff sticks to the paratha.

9) heat the griddle and to it spread some ghee which is clarified butter.

10) and then very gently land the paratha on it and now cook it for about a minute on medium flame.
