3. Grate the Radish Fine

Finely grate the radish for the stuffing. This ensures a smoother stuffing and helps avoid the paratha breaking while rolling.

4. Use the Stuffing Immediately

Once the stuffing is ready, use it right away. Leaving it out too long makes it sticky and hard to manage.

5. Add Salt At Last Minute

Don't add salt to the stuffing immediately. It makes the radish release water. Mix salt on a plate before filling the dough.

6. Avoid Overstuffing

Stuffing is crucial, but don't overdo it. Use a spoon or your hand to fill the paratha just right, then roll it out gently.
