For Dough:
Take a deep bowl put atta, ghee,  powdered sugar, curd and salt. Using water make firm but soft dough. Cover with wet kitchen cloth and keep aside for 1 hour. In summers one hour is sufficient. In winters keep aside for 2 hours outside the fridge.


For filling:

Now take dough which is resting for 1 hour make big pedas or balls, which we make for paranthas. Roll it little, add filling.

Close the roll making sure all the sides are well sealed. Now till it gently using rolling pin. 

Take old cooker. Keep it on high flame, When it is hot take rolled parantha in your hand, wet your one palm and apply it on parantha, making sure water is applied evenly specially on the edges, don't over apply water.

Stick wet parantha on side of hot cooker as shown in pic below. Turn the cooker upside down and keep the flame low to medium and let it cook till it becomes brown as shown in pic below.

Once cooked remove it with the help of tong and cook other side on gas top with the help of tong.

Remove from fire, brush with butter and coriander mix. Serve hot with butter, curd or dal makhani.


NOTES:
1. Adding ghee and curd in dough makes it super soft and fluffy.

2. If you have enough time keep the dough for minimum 2 hours even in summers

3. Knead the dough little firm as it will rest outside the fridge due to which it will become more soft.

4. Keep salt little higher in filling, take taste test at this point of time.



5. Make sure to cook parathna on low to medium flame, if you cook on high flame parantha will remain raw from inside.

6. It's important to cook parantha from the other side too, else it will remain raw.

7. Before sticking the parantha, make sure that cooker is super hot or it will not stick.

8. Wetting parantha with water helps in better sticking.
