Optional notes:

This is a simple aloo parantha. If you have any dry vegetable left out (with potato) you can use it also as filling. Just mash and add spices (if required), and instant filling is ready. Different vegetables can be added with potato to make different varieties like aloo ghobhi(potato and cauliflower), aloo pyaz(potato and onion),aloo methi(potato and fenugreek leaves) and many other.
