In a bowl, add maida, salt, sugar, curd, baking powder, baking soda and mix well. Add warm water gradually and knead a soft dough. Allow the dough to rest for 2 hours.
2.
Prepare smooth balls from the dough. Place one ball and dust the working surface with all purpose flour. Roll the dough into around 8″ diameter circle as thin as possible. Drizzle a teaspoon of oil and smear it all over. Sprinkle little flour all over the rolled roti.
3.
Now, start at one end of the circle, begin pleating into 1 cm folds like a fan.After that, twirl it around to form a spiral securing the ends. Repeat this with the remaining dough balls.
4.
Now, gently roll the spirals into 5” diameter parathas.Heat up a tawa on high flame for roasting the paratha. Spread a few drops of water with the help of your fingers on only one side of the rolled paratha. Now carefully lift the paratha and stick it on the tawa with water side down.
5.
When the water side is cooked, brush some oil. Now, carefully pace the tawa upside down so that the other side can cook in direct flame. Once the paratha gets brown spots, brush oil once again and remove it to a serving plate. Place a dollop of butter and serve hot.
