Next, approximately 3.5 kg atta was taken on the slab. A huge rolling pin and table were used to roll out the paratha. Meanwhile, the paratha was roasted with the help of a huge tawa weighing 40 kg. A steel rod with a cloth at the end was used to apply a mixture of oil and Amul butter on the paratha. The giant paratha was cooked on both sides and served with curd, green chutney, red garlic chutney and white butter!
