Cauliflower Paratha


Prepare *dough with wheat flour.

Boil cauliflower florets [1cup] with little salt in one glass of water for 5-6minutes. Enough if it is half-boiled. Dry it and Chop it to tiny pieces.

Heat oil [1tbs] in the pan. Fry grated ginger [1tsp], cumin seeds [1tsp] and chopped onions [1] for some time. Add chopped cauliflower florets, chilli powder [1tsp], garam masala powder [1/2tsp], coriander powder [1tsp] and remaining salt. Fry for 5minutes and turn off the heat. Cool the mixture. Chopped cilantro leaves can also be added. NO WATER must be added.

Take one 1tbs of this mixture, place it in the centre of the rolled out chapathi. Cover the stuffing by bringing the edges together and once again roll it on the sealed side.

Heat the tava and make Parathas. Use ghee.

CHAPATHI DOUGH:

Knead the dough using:
  • wheat flour [4 cups]
  • milk [1/3 cup] - I generally add milk to Chapathi dough. Don't add if you are making Parathas. 
  • oil [3tbs], salt and water
I generally add oil while kneading the dough. I don't use oil while cooking the Paratha. Just trying to be health conscious ! :)
