Instructions
- in a bowl or vessel take 3 cups whole wheat flour along with salt as required. add 1 tablespoon ghee or oil.
- next add 1 cup water or as required. knead the wheat flour with water to a smooth dough.
- Cover and keep aside for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Rinse the cauliflower head very well. Then grate cauliflower with a fine grater. Add some finely chopped green chilies to it. Mix.
- later take 2 small to medium sized balls from the dough. dust them with some flour on the rolling board.
- with a rolling pin (belan), roll both the dough balls to a size of about 3 to 4 inches in diameter.
- now spread some ghee over one of the rolled disc. top it with a few tablespoons of the grated gobi/cauliflower mix and keep about 1 inch empty space from the sides.
- sprinkle 1 to 2 pinches of salt, red chili powder and garam masala powder all over on the grated gobi.
- also sprinkle some wheat flour. as the grated cauliflower tend to be moist, sprinkling little wheat flour helps the parathas not to be moist and sticky when rolling with a pin (belan).
- press and seal the edges very well with your fingertips.
- dust some flour on the stuffed paratha and start rolling the gobi paratha with the help of a rolling pin (belan). roll very gently and lightly till you get the paratha to a size of a chapati or roti.
- on a hot tava (tawa or skillet or griddle) place the rolled gobi paratha.
- roast the gobhi paratha with ghee till browned and uniformly roasted on both sides.
- you can also press the gobhi paratha edges with a spatula or spoon, so that they are fried well. as some time, the paratha edges are not cooked well.
- serve gobi paratha hot with yogurt, pickle or white butter.
