Tips
That was the lazy way of doing it. Else, one can cook the sprouts & potato into a curry and make the parathas with the stuffing. I added a bit of besan and soybean flour to the make the dough. One can add chopped onions, grated carrot, grated paneer, chopped tomatoes to the stuffing. Well, use one’s imagination :D
