This may sound very simple, but totally addictive, equally for kids and adults. When you make dough for usual chapathi prepare this as a kind of dessert at last. While cooking the parathas the smell of the sugar getting caramalized and generous drizzle of ghee over it makes you whole home smell awesome. Do give it a try if you have not tasted them yet.

It shall be prepared with any sugar, I've used normal white sugar here. Few points while making this are, always cook it quickly. Place it on a hot tawa and be quick to cook or the sugar may caramalize and turn hard making your chapathis very hard to bite. Some add powdered sugar to make this, but according to me the results are much better by using granulated sugar as the powdered sugar turns hard before the chapathis are cooked well. The sugar caramalizes and leaves something behind on the tawa too, so if necessary wash the tawa if the chapathi sticks to the tawa a lot or if making normal chapathis. These have more brown spots than our chapathi. Be generous with ghee to make your parathas yummy yummy. Use 1/2 tsp ghee for one paratha. Roll the parathas with care by dusting with flour as required.
