Check http://www.amazon.com for a Marble Lazy Susan in the query. There are plenty of choices out there. A granite trivet also would do the trick.

Hi Hetal and Anuja,
Just a small doubt. May I know what is a Pickle Masala? And where do I get them ? Thanks in advance

Hi Asha,
You have two options. You can get the masala from a pickle jar you have at home or from the Indian grocery store (ex: Mango Pickle) or there is also a dry “Pickle Masala” available at the Indian grocery store that is used for making homemade pickles. Either one will work perfectly.

Hi,
Can I use regular tofu instead of silken tofu for this recipe?
Thanks

Hi Vidhya,
Regular tofu will not work as the texture is too crumbly. Silken or soft tofu, when mashed, almost turns liquidy so that the flour is easy to incorporate.

Thanks Krithika!
We have shown a Bell Pepper subzi in the picture but you can use this paratha as you would a regular paratha or roti. You really cannot taste the tofu so it tastes more like a masala roti.
