Notes: According to my experience, I have noticed that some potatoes vary their texture once it is boiled. Some will remain dry & soft while mashing the one we required it and some will be too soft & watery kind of, in this case, you can add poha(flattened rice) to make the texture stable.
For beginners, I recommend not to overstuff the stuffing as it may be difficult to roll the paratha.
Here I have used the wheat flour for making paratha. If you like using maida instead you can.
