- Sprinkle some oil in the middle and roll it in a spiral shape in your palm and tuck the end beneath. Follow the same step on the remaining balls kept.
- Take each spiral shaped dough and flatten it gently with your palm to medium sized disc shape.
- Heat a tawa and spread some oil / ghee, place the flattened parottas, pour oil / ghee on top and cook the parottas on both sides until golden and crisp.
