Divide dough into 16 portions. Roll each portion on floured surface into 6-inch round. Stack rounds between layers of plastic wrap to prevent them drying out.
3
For the filling, boil, steam or microwave potatoes until tender. Mash coarsely in medium bowl. Stir in spices and cilantro. Divide filling among 8 dough rounds, leaving 1/4-inch borders. Brush borders with water. Top with remaining rounds, pressing edges together to seal.
4
Heat some of the remaining ghee in large skillet on medium heat. Cook parathas in batches, until browned and slightly puffed on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining ghee and parathas.
