Bun Parotta / Madras Parotta

Bun Parotta/ Madras Parotta … Specially for all the Parotta lovers out there… It’s slightly different and easier to prepare than the Kerala parotta.. Proper kneading of the dough and roll out method if followed correctly, it’s a Win win situation.
I had prepared this for the first time when I saw a food documentary video showcasing these Parotta. And I searched for the proper method to make it on internet and tried it.. For the first time I can say it isn’t too perfect but not bad though so thought of sharing the recepie here.
