ALOO PARATHA(RIYADH STYLE) - STEP BY STEP
Aloo paratha in riyadh style, what is so special about these paratha's????? . These paratha's are made only during the ramzan period. Duirng ramzan they put a stall outside a restaurant and they prepare this. You should see the large queue waiting for these paratha's and you also have tokens issued ahead.
Only two people will be standing in the stall,one preparing the paratha's and the other person puts in the tawa.Everything happens very fast.
The stuffing is very simple no powders required, so let me go straight to the recipe.
