Masala Oats Paratha

Paratha is a stuffed Indian bread. There are Different types of parathas , aloo paratha, pudina paratha, gobi paratha, methi paratha  and so on , it differs with the stuffing inside.  I decided to make a healthier parathas by adding oats. Its prepared with spicy mixture of oats along with wheat flour. Traditionally parathas are made  as a breakfast dish. But I do make this as a dinner. This is very healthy and easy to make. With Pickle, pudina chutney or plain Yogurt, they are absolutely delicious.
