Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes until it becomes smooth. Cover with a damp kitchen cloth and set aside on the counter for 20 minutes. Knead again for 3-4 minutes. Cover and set aside for another 20 minutes. Divide the dough into pieces and roll each piece to make a ball. Keep the balls covered with cloth to. Dust a dough ball lightly with dry flour and roll as thin as possible. Brush oil generously over the rolled dough. Sprinkle little flour on top. Fold the rolled dough. Keep stretching a little from the sides while pleating. Make a pinwheel with the pleated dough and tuck the end at the bottom. Dust with flour and roll to make a 5-6 inch disc.

Apply 1 teaspoon oil on each side and cook till brown spots darken. Keep pressing the paratha while cooking using the back of a ladle. Transfer the paratha from the griddle to the counter.
