Process of making Churi Masala Paratha
Take some oil in your hand and mash the dough. Now put some dry flour on your hand and break a ball, as big or small as you want to make paratha. Make a peda by making it round and roll it lightly, if it sticks, then roll it by applying a little dry flour. After rolling, pour some oil on it and spread it around and fold it in half. Then apply some oil back and fold it in half again.
Now roll it lightly by applying flour on it, remember that it has to be rolled from all three sides so that it is rolled triangular. Now heat the tawa and put some oil on it and cook the parathas. Apply oil little by little and cook till brown spots appear on both the sides. After roasting, take it off and bake the rest in the same way. In this way churi masala paratha will be ready. Serve them with roasted tomato chutney and enjoy the taste.
Suggestions
Churi of lentils has to be soaked well.
The dough has to be kneaded exactly like an ordinary paratha.
While rolling, roll with a light hand so that the parathas do not get torn.
The flame should be medium while roasting the parathas. If the parathas are roasting slowly, then turn the flame back to medium high.
