Vegetable Paratha - Oil Free/Ghee Free

This is very healthy paratha and easy to make. The good thing about this recipe is that there is no oil, ghee, or butter in this paratha. I used warm water for the paratha. One word of caution is that this parathas should be served hot or warm because they loose their softness quickly.
