Roll all of them. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. You can brush them with egg wash or leave them plain. In the previous recipes I always used egg wash; today I’m doing a batch without it.

Bake in the middle rack at 190–200°C with top and bottom heat for 20 minutes. Adjust the time and temperature slightly according to your own oven brand and performance.

Paratha feels much less greasy baked this way! You can see the excess oil rendered out onto the parchment paper.

Plate and serve! The baked paratha is beautifully layered, and the excess oil has even plumped up the ham sausages, making them fragrant and chubby—each one is like a little fatty roll.
