What are some tips for making a flaky paratha?

[SEEING-TO-BELIEVE]

it is so tasty when flaky..

i know you should crumble it at the end for "luck" and also better texture..

and use significant amount of oil or ghee..

what else will make it better? it should be tips that are easy to follow.. if possible

here is an example of what i mean

Practice from what I understand about making them.

It looks like the recipe is making pastry dough where the dough is layered and spread with fat (butter, ghee, oil) stacked, rolled out making thin layers of dough and fat.
The layers separate a little when it is baked.

I watched two different video's on how to make Paratha. Both helped to give a good understanding of the method. One rolled the thinned dough out and the other folded/pleated it up before rolling again. The pleated one looked more like the picture you posted Seeing-to-Believe.
I think I would use butter, decadent muncher that I am.

aside:
Never heard of Partha before and looked it up but the only recipe that came up was for a dish for Punjabi spaghetti and meatballs. And then realized I had spelt it wrong!!
Big Difference! Paratha and Partha.
