Plain dal paratha
To begin making the Leftover Dal Paratha, firstly add the leftover dal and wheat flour in a bowl. Mix everything well and knead it into a smooth dough.
If your dough turns too watery, add few tablespoons of flour at a time and knead to make a smooth dough. Cover and let the dough sit for about 30 minutes.
After 15 minutes, heat a roti tawa. Pinch a lemon sized ball from the dough, roll it round and make it into a ball shape. Dust the dough in flour and flatten it using a rolling pin to about 7-centimetre circle.
Place it on hot tawa and cook on both sides until they get cooked. Rub about 1/4 teaspoon ghee or oil on both the sides of paratha. Remove from pan and repeat the same procedure for the remaining dough.
