FOR ASSEMBLING THE PARATHA :
Roll out a ball from the dough and flatten it with your hands. Put about a spoon of the peas masala in it and gently cover it and seal the edges nicely.
Now with a rolling pin roll out your parathas as you do with your chapattis / rotis but a bit gently or else the masala might get out.
Now heat a tawa and put your paratha in it. Let it heat on one side then flip on the other and put oil in it . Press it gently then flip back and use some more oil . It will be light brown on both sides. Press the sides gently. It will done within 5 - 6 mins on a medium to high heat.

Now fry everything together in a high heat for about 2/3 mins then add water. Let it boil for about 7/9 mins and stir in between so that it doesn't stick. The gravy will become thick at this point . You can check your salt ,spice and tanginess in this sabji.
