          To the second portion, add the beetroot puree and knead into a dough with required quantity of water. Keep aside.

          Knead the remaining flour with enough water and keep aside for 10-15 minutes. Roll all the three dough separately into a big circle, just like chapatti by dusting some flour.

          Stack them one over the other and roll them tightly from one end to the other. Cut into 1/2" thick rounds. Roll out each round into a round paratha.

          Heat a tawa and fry them on both sides till light golden in colour by drizzling some oil over it and around the edges. Serve them hot with any side dish.
