Its taste is a little different from normal plain paratha, but it is very tasty and unique. It is usually made during the mango season when ripe mangoes are easily available. When baked on the pan, the taste of paratha becomes soft from inside and slightly crispy from outside. Mango gives mild sweetness and also makes the dough naturally soft. You can make this for breakfast or evening tiffin when you want something different…

पिछले सप्ताह हमने अपनी ईएचडी “स्प्रिंग” टीम रिट्रीट पर पाम स्प्रिंग्स में तीन दिन बिताए, जो एक बड़ी पुरानी सफलता थी और अधिकांश “सामान्य” कंपनी की ऑफसाइट्स की तुलना में काफी अलग थी। जैसे, जब हम अधिक विशिष्ट कार्यालय संस्कृति वाले लोगों को बताते हैं कि हमने क्या किया, तो बहुत सारे शब्द “रुको, क्या?” और शायद कुछ की भौंहें उठी हुई थीं। मैं यह नहीं कहूंगा कि अत्यधिक मानव संसाधन उल्लंघन हैं, लेकिन निश्चित रूप से कुछ जोखिम हैं। इन टीम रिट्रीट के साथ मेरा लक्ष्य तीन गुना है: मैक्रो कंपनी प्लानिंग, आईआरएल कनेक्शन, और अच्छे पुराने जमाने का…
