Preparing and Serving South Indian Paratha in Jeddah

Paratha is a kind of bread (loaf) cooked with oil on a flat surface called Tawwa. Paratha is a traditional dish in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. There are many varieties of Parathas like Aalu ka paratha, gobi ka pratha, saag ka paratha etc. Actually it is coocked with stuffing of few vegetables inside. Vegetables like Curly flower, potatos etc. However south Indian people specially Keralite (people from Indian state Kerala) have more variety of paratha. They coock it with Egg topping, Meat topping and Banana topping. I cannot describe the recipe or full procedure of making it because I really don't have correct idea. I can only show you few photographs from which you can get idea.
