A video showing the making of an "organic colour paratha" in Jalandhar, Punjab, has gone viral on social media.

Stuffed parathas are a classic favourite across Indian households, especially when paired with chutney or curd. This viral video kicks off with a red-coloured dough being rolled out and filled with what seems like a mix of mashed potatoes, chopped onions and some paneer. Then, a layer of green dough is rolled and placed right on top. The edges are pinched to seal in the filling, and the dough is rolled out again to form a single stuffed disc. It is then tossed on a tawa, cooked with some ghee and flipped a few times. Once it starts to cook, the paratha is cracked open slightly, rolled again and cooked a bit more to get that golden, crispy finish.
Once done, the vibrant parathas are served hot, along with all the tasty side dishes. The text on the video reads, "Organic colour paper parantha in Jalandhar," and the look on the customer's face says it all - pure joy. Watch the complete viral video here:
