3.Divide the dough into 12 balls. Roll each ball into 6 inch wide discs.
4.When the pan is hot, spray the surface with little oil, and transfer the disc of dough. When the top surface shows bubbles, turn it over and cook on reverse side. Now, sprinkle some oil over the top of the disc and cook for 30-40 seconds. Turn again and drizzle oil on this surface too. Press around the edges. The paratha is done when both sides are golden brown in color.
