Stuffing preparation
Heat oil in pan, add red chili powder then immediately add chopped cabbage & onion (optional), fry well. Then add turmeric powder, salt, cumin coriander powder, chaat masala, fry well. Cabbage leaves water. So fry till all water is evaporated. Need to stir continuously to avoid burning. The stuffing should be dry so that it doesn't leak our of dough. Switch off the flame and allow it to cool.
Actual method
Make 4 -5 portions of dough. Take one portion of dough on the polpat or flat surface. Then roll gently to make big and round in shape of size around 5-6 inch. Then take stuffing at the center. Close with sides and make a ball. Make sure that it is completely sealed. Now apply little flour and roll gently avoid putting pressure, otherwise stuffing will burst out. 
Now heat the tava. Then put the paratha on tava and apply little butter on upper side. Let it be for 3-4 min. Then flip the paratha and roast. Roast the paratha for about 4-5 min on medium flame till it becomes light golden brown / crispy.

Tip.
Serve hot with curd, tomato or chili garlic sauce.
