Mooli Paratha - Radish and Cilantro Wraps

Mooli or Radish is famous for its strong unpleasant aroma. But once cooked it is one of the most delicious root vegetable that exists on Mother Earth. This paratha or wrap is so delicious that my 4 year old daughter loved it. A thumbs up from a 4 year old! Do I have to say anymore?
