Gobi Paratha

Parathas are one of my favorite food items.

Ingredients :

1 Cauliflower - chop it into small pieces
Wheat Flour
Salt - to taste
Chilli Powder - to taste
Coriander powder - to taste
Zeera powder - to taste
Oil
Ghee/butter
Turmeric
Asefotida

Procedure:

For the dough:

Mix the wheat flour and water and make the dough a little looser than the chapati
dough. Let it rest atleast for half an hour.

For the stuffing:

Take 4-5 tea spoons oil in a pan with medium heat. Once the oil is a little hot, add a pinch of turmeric, a pinch of asefotida, then add cauliflower and start frying.



After a while add chilli powder, salt, coriander powder, zeera powder and continue frying.


Let it cook until the mixture takes up all the water. Its the best time to taste the stuffing.

The final step:
you can make the parathas in 2 ways.
1 Way:
Take 2 small balls from the dough. Roll these 2 seperately, now stuff the gobi in between these two and then again roll it thin or thick as you want.
Now cook it on the stove with ghee or butter.
Serve this with curd or chutney or pickle.


2 Way:
Take a big ball of the dough. Roll it into a small circle. Now stuff the gobi, close all the loose ends, then roll it as thick or as thin as you want.
Later, cook it on the tava, with ghee or butter.
Serve it with curd, chutney or pickle.
