Rice paratha calls for cooked rice, some basic spices, coriander, and wheat flour; in its original form or in form of a dough. In the first version cooked rice is mashed along with whole wheat flour, some spices and dough are formed using water. Little rice paratha recipe flour is added to give a crisp texture to the paratha. In the second version a stuffing is prepared using cooked rice, some spices etc and paranthas are made using that stuffing.
Oil is used for frying the paratha. You may also use ghee but if you plan to serve the parantha later or once they come to the room temperature is advisable that you use oil because of ghee sets once it gets cold and the texture of the paratha changes.
Serve paratha with green chutney, masala tea, etc.
