Notes
1. I have used ½ cup of water for 1 cup of flour, you may need little more or less.
2. Leaving the dough for rest make a smooth dough.
3. You can also use little khoya or mawa while stuffing it gives very smooth taste.
4. If you do not have dry coconut use fresh coconut, just sauté it in little butter till it become dry. Let it cool down then mix it with sugar and nuts.
5. Instead of using butter you can also use ghee in this recipe.
6. Do not roll parathas very thin otherwise stuffing will come out.
