About

An easy and simple stuffed paratha recipe prepared with wheat flour dough, stuffed with raw cauliflower grate, and mixed herbs and spices. Cauliflower paratha most commonly known as Gobi Paratha is a staple food from North India and is often served as an alternative to Aloo Paratha. It is typically loaded with spice and savory stuffing and hence does not require any additional sides and condiments. However, it tastes even better when served with mint or yogurt raita or with any desired curries and sabzi. There are many different ways to make this simple and healthy Gobi Paratha. The most common and popular way is to make the stuffing with raw gobi grate and mix it with spices and herbs. However, there is another popular way to cook the cauliflower first and then mash it and prepare the stuffing. In addition, the cooked cauliflower can also be mixed directly into the wheat dough. This is much easier and simpler to cook. Lastly, in the place of wheat flour, plain or maida flour can also be used to make it more tasty.
