Gobhi Cauliflower Paratha

Gobhi Paratha or stuffed cauliflower paratha is in my opinion the king of parathas. This recipe is from my mother-in-law, and her parathas are arguably the best because they are thin, crispy and full of favor. There is a skill to paratha making, which gets better with practice. I have tried to detail the process, hopefully it works for you.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

  2. 2

    In pan pour oil, add mustard, garlic and chili. When the garlic gets fragrant, add the cauliflower and salt. Water will ooze out of the cauliflower. Make sure the mixture is dry before you add potatoes. Sauté the mixture till it's dry. Check for salt.

  3. 3

    Take a big size dough ball and flatten it to a small circle with a rolling pin. Make a ball of the potato cauliflower mixture, same size as the dough ball. Place this mixture in the dough circle, and cover the dough around the mixture and cover it like a modak. Take the excess portion off the top, and flatten it as much as possible with your hands. Coat it with flour and flatten it with a rolling pin. Make your paratha as thin as possible but be careful not to get the mixture out from the sides.

Unleash it; change the world, one meal at a time :) We are sharing recipes that are either inventive or have taken years to perfect and are near to our hearts. It is also a tribute to our loving parents, whom we call umpteen number times in the middle of the night, when disaster strikes the recipe, asking them for help to resuscitate our dish. We promise to make every step accurate and clear. If you ever cook one of our recipes and don’t get the results, all I can say to you is that; we have been there and done that. You will figure out ways to salvage your dish unless you have turned it into a piece of charcoal. Even then you can try scraping off the carbon and see if there is a diamond inside. The diamond is the experience and the joy of cooking.
