You can either cook the sweet potatoes in the oven at 350 for 50 mins,or boil them until tender.Once cooked and cooled, peel and mash it up until all soft and creamy.Keep aside.

Take the flour in a deep vessel or bowl.

Make a hole in the center and fill it with 1/4 cup of water.

Add the mashed sweet potato,cumin,salt and oil and start kneading with your hands.

Add more water if its too dry, until it starts coming together and forms a dough.The dough should not be too wet or too dry.It should be soft to touch.Once done cover it with a cling film and refrigerate for about 30 mins.

Flour your surface.

Take a small amount of the dough in your palms and shape into a ball.Flour it on both sides, flatten it a bit and start rolling it on the surface to get a circular shape.Keep flouring your surface every now and then to avoid the dough sticking.

The paratha is ready to go into the tava or pan.Heat the pan to medium high and place the paratha.

Using a teaspoon take about 1 tsp of oil and spread all over the side that’s up first and flip it over.It should now puff up.Oil the other side in similar manner and just cook until you get nice golden spots telling you that its cooked.Press it all over with a spatula so that its cooked evenly.

Your paratha is ready!Serve hot with Raita or a vegetable/meat dish.
