In this recipe, I have used just cauliflower stuffing, but this can be easily extended by adding other veggies. You may add onions, potatoes, and even capsicum. perhaps I will share that recipe soon.

Some important tips and suggestions for a perfect and yummy gobhi ka paratha recipe. Firstly, the dough needs to be kneaded very smoothly so that the spiced cauliflower is easily stuffed. Yet do not make it super smooth as the stuffing may ooze out while shaping and rolling it. Secondly, and more importantly, apply butter or ghee on the paratha while frying after you have roasted the paratha once. This ensures the paratha to cook perfectly otherwise it will turn oily and half-cooked. Lastly, I have added red chilli powder to gobi stuffing, but additionally, green chilies too can be added to make it spicier.

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.
