In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot powder, ground flaxseed, and salt.
Add warm water slowly to the flour mixture while mixing it with your hands to form a soft dough. The dough should be pliable but not sticky. Adjust water or flour if necessary.
Add cumin seeds, chopped cilantro, and green chilies to the dough, kneading them evenly into the mixture.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball.
Place a dough ball between two sheets of parchment paper and gently press it into a flat disc. Use a rolling pin to roll it out to your desired thickness (about 1/8 inch thick), but keep it within 6 inches in diameter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with some ghee.
Carefully peel the parchment paper off the parantha and transfer it to the heated skillet.
Cook the parantha for 2-3 minutes on one side until it becomes golden brown. Flip it over and brush the top side with a little ghee, cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls.
Serve warm with a side of Whole30-compliant chutney or curry.
