Cauliflower /Gobi Paratha

Cauliflower/Gobi paratha is a simple and delicious stuffed paratha which is easy to make and a good option for lunch box or dinner.No need of any special side dish,raitha or pickle tastes good.Cauliflower is my family's favorite veggie and often make some dishes with cauliflower.One such dish is gobi paratha which I make it every week either for lunch box or dinner.The recipe is as follows......

Method

                         Mix in the flours together,add in salt and a tbs of oil and make a soft dough with water.Let it soak for 15 minutes.
Mean while prepare the stuffing,wash and cut the cauliflower into florets,grate it with a grater or food processor.Add in a salt and mix it well and keep aside for 10 minutes,then squeeze the cauliflower to take out excess moisture.
Heat a pan with oil in a medium flame and crackle the cumin seeds,add the green chillies and ginger.Now add the grated cauliflower and saute it for a minute.Then add all the powders.
Cook it till the raw smell goes away,add the chopped coriander leaves and turn off the flame.Let it cool down completely.Now divide the stuffing(approximately 2tbs) and the dough to equal portions.
Take one portion of dough and roll it to a small round,keep one portion of stuffing.Pull the sides to the center and seal it.
Flat it gently and rolled on a floured surface to a circle of desired thickness.
Heat the griddle,put the paratha on the griddle and cook both the sides.Drizzle 1/2 tsp of oil.
Paratha is ready.Serve it with pickle of your choice and raitha.

Enjoy...............



  • If the stuffing is bit watery and not dry,add two table spoons of rice flakes(poha/aval)to it.It absorbs the extra moisture.
  • Finely chopped onions can also be used along with the cauliflower. 
  • Chaat masala can also be used for extra flavor.

When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention.
