      These were delicious!!!! The only thing I did really different was in the filling. I sauted 1 small onion and added it to the filling. I dont like olives so I left them out. I chopped the potatoes as charishma did to cut down on cooking time. I used more wheat flour than white flour, and lemon juice for the citrus juice (which worked excellent!!). They were just spectacular! Thank you so much for an absolutely wonderful recipe!!

      Splendid! I enjoyed one paratha for lunch with Tomato Ketchup out of the 8 that I made. I did not have cayenne, so I substituted that with 1/2 tsp. black pepper. The citrus juice worked like magic in this(I used lemon). I did not have kalamata olives, hence, omitted those. A humble suggestion regarding the potatoes - I found that if they are chopped before boiling(rather than putting the whole potato in the boiling salted-water), they tend to cook faster! Hence, a great deal of time is saved. Thanks for a great recipe! This will be a sure certain paratha on our table in the coming winter months.

      I assume you roll the parantha again after putting the filling (step 12). It should be about one sixth of an inch thickness. I'll try these with whole wheat flour only, with minimum oil.

      Absolutely delicious! I added some onion to the recipe and used hot chilli powder instead of cayenne (which I didn't have) and they were really lovely. I served the paratha with an aubergine and spinach curry and the flavours went extremely well together. A great recipe!

      I've made this once so far, and it turned out okay, though all errors were my own - I put too much potato in the bread, and as a result they didn't fry well. If I want to overstuff them again I may try boiling or baking. That aside, they were really delicious - I omitted the cumin, cayenne, juice and olives, because I didn't have any, but the potatoes with pepper inside the bread was delicious without. I'll definitely make this recipe again, and follow the instructions more closely next time.

      Sorry to say: edible, but we didn't enjoy this much. DH thought I put too much pepper in (1/4 tsp cayenne in a half batch and just a sprinkling of black pepper), but he didn't think it had much flavor otherwise. I seasoned to my taste so the spice was right for me but there was just something about the combination of flavors that didn't work for me, but I couldn't put my finger on exactly what, aside from the lemon flavor being a little too dominate. I did make exactly as directed (used 1/2 tsp salt and 3 olives). There's also a small problem with the directions: I rolled out to slightly over 4-inches and still couldn't fit more than about 1 1/2 teaspoons filling inside, much less 2 tablespoons.

      It's recipes like this that make 'zaar so worthwhile. s'kat, the instructions were perfect and the results divine. This transformed my sometimes mundane kitchen into a path through India. I only made 8 huge parathas and omitted the olives (not my favorite thing). The toasty, chewy, soft, flavorful breads were the perfect comfort food. I will be eating them (again!) later along with your suggestion to accompany Dave's Roasted Eggplant Soup. Thanks so much.

      I think you have to be good at rolling the paratha if you want a successful batch. For me, the potato mix spread unevenly, and each paratha seemed too small.
