Peas-Potato-Paratha

#PeasPotatoParatha : Stuffed #Parathas are the main breakfast food item of North Indian people. The stuffings are prepared using potato, mashed vegetable & potato, #paneer, potato & paneer, #greenpeas & potato, etc.,... and the list goes on.
It is one of the best lunch box foods and healthy too.
