Roll it about 3 inches size and put 1 tbsp of broccoli stuffing/ filling on it.
Bring all the edges together of the dough and press them to the center.
Flatten the roll again and dust it with some more flour. Now roll the paratha lightly from all sides and the center as well making a perfect circle of 4-5 inches diameter.
Heat a non stick tawa, and put the rolled paratha on it.
Check when the bottom side of the paratha is half cooked, flip the side and apply some ghee/ oil to it with the help of a spoon.
Flip the paratha again now so that the bottom side will be the one with ghee/ oil.
Now apply ghee/ oil to the upper side as well. Flip it for 1 and 2 times so as to make sure broccoli paratha is cooked well.
While cooking, you may press the broccoli paratha edges with the help of a flat spoon.

Good food creates good memories and can win many hearts. Though basic cooking started in my Mumbai days, but being in Germany for few years, I started missing all Indian food especially street food. This has made me trying new and new dishes at home and even during the lockdown period in india, it has proved to be the need of the hour!!
