  5. Take little mixture and make a small ball. Similarly make all the dough balls. Take a butter paper (or you can use plastic paper), apply some oil on butter paper, place the mixture ball over it, place another butter paper on it. Take one round plate and keep it on the top, gently apply some pressure so that the dough get flatten and round. Now, paratha is ready to roast.
  6. Heat up a pan, put some ghee, put prepared paratha and slowly remove the butter paper. Roast it on medium flame, turn once done in one side and apply some ghee on it. Roast both the sides nicely. Sabudana Paratha is ready. Serve hot with chutney or Jeera aloo.

Notes

  • Avoid to add to much water in the dough otherwise it will get sticky and will take too much time to cook.
  • In case batter is too sticky add any gluten free flour like rajgira flour or kuttu flour, that will help.
