    Sometimes I try to make stuffed parotta but the filling comes out during rolling. If I reduce the quantity of filling there is no taste of aloo in parotta. Any suggestions for improvement?

    I once saw this tip on Khana Khazana. Since then, I make all my stuffed parathas this way.

    Roll out two medium thickness puris. Keep potato filling in the centre of one puri. Apply very little water round the edges. Now place the other puri on the top of the filling. Dust with flour and roll as usual. This way the filling stays intact inside the paratha. You can half roast these and store them in the refrigerator also till later use.

    QUICK CAKE CUSTARD
    *******************

    Layer a square serving dish with sponge cake. Open a tin of fruit cocktail. Pour syrup on the sponge cake to soak. Next layer with the fruit peices.
    Lastly, pour some vanilla custard on the cake and fruit layer. Garnish with chocolate slivers/nuts/fruits or just crumbled biscuits. Leave to set for an hour or two in the fridge.

    This is my DH's favourite dessert.....While he is enjoying it, I can ask him for anything and he is sure to say YES!!!

    Hope you like it.....

    Friends please share more quickie dessert recipes.

    Too much water or moisture in the filling should be the cause.Boiled potatoes should drained and allowed to cool before preparing the filling.Making the filling a l'lle bit more dry by sauteing the mixture over low flame also makes the filling dry.Let the filling cool thoroughly before starting to make parathas.

    Since parathas are soft after cooking the dough need not be too loose.
