Mango paratha recipe – A sweet paratha which has a mix of both sweet and spicy taste.If you love mangoes then this one is a must try for you, am sure kids will love it for its sweet taste.
The idea of mango paratha flashed when I saw a picture of roti and amras.The color of the paratha is so appealing that kids will be sure attracted seeing it.
Mittu just loved it and had 2 parathas which was so surprising for me and asked me to make it often.I am going to make this again before the mango season ends.

-
Fold them from both sides as shown then fold from other side also like this.Seal it completely.
-
Now turn over to other side and roll it to a slightly thin paratha.Roll the parathas and make it ready.
-
Heat a dosa tawa, place a paratha drizzle oil and slightly on all sides with a laddle. It will puff up nicely.then turn over and cook on both sides until brown spots appear here and there.Like wise make all the parathas.
- Make sure to cook the parathas in low flame as it tends to cook faster.Keep an eye as it will easily get burnt.
- You can make regular round parathas too.I just wanted to insist on the folding as it gives very soft parathas.You can bring all the edges to the center(like how we do for stuffed parathas),seal and then roll again to get circular shaped parathas.
