Place all-purpose and atta in a large bowl. Add oil. Season with salt. Add water, little by little, and make soft dough. Divide dough into 7 equal parts, and roll them into balls.
Place a ball on a floured surface, and roll out into a circle. Spread a little oil or ghee on top. Sprinkle with flour (atta). Starting from one end, fold it to form pleats. Now roll it again like Swiss roll.
Press it down slightly with the palm of your hand. Sprinkle with more flour (atta). Roll it out again.
Place the paratha on a tawa over medium heat. When you see bubbles, flip it over, spread a little ghee on top, and allow to cook. Flip it again, spread a little ghee on top, and cook again until both sides are golden. Remove from heat.
Continue with the rest of the parathas.

Notes
- If you want to make whole wheat parathas, substitute all purpose (plain) flour with 1 cup whole wheat flour (atta). - Adding ghee instead of oil adds more flavor to the parathas.
