½ teaspoon thymol /caraway seeds (Ajwain)
2 tablespoon curd
1 tablespoon oil for dough
1 teaspoon corn flour
2 tablespoon oil for making parantha

Method

Sift flour.  Add salt and caraway seeds and mix.
Make a depression in the centre.
Add 1 tablespoon oil and curd and mix it well with your fingers.
With the help of some water make a little soft dough.
Keep it aside, covered for about 10-15 minutes.

Mix corn flour with 1 teaspoon oil in a bowl to a paste and keep it aside.
Divide the dough into 3 parts and make balls out of them with the help of your palm.





Roll out each ball with a rolling pin into a thick pancake of 8-9 inch diameter.
Now spread the corn flour and oil paste over the pancake.



Roll it up like a Swiss roll.
Cut each roll into 3-4 parts of same size.



Roll out each part with the help of a rolling pin.







Heat a tava or a non-stick pan.
Place the parantha on the pan.
Cook it till it begins to turn brown, and then turn it over.
Pour a little oil over the parantha.
Fry till golden brown.
Turn the parantha over and pour a little more oil if required, then fry till it is brown on both sides.
