Parathas are favorite food of whole family and when made with cauliflower, it gives quite a unique taste. Make gobhi paratha at lunch or dinner with the following simple recipe.

Make medium sized balls of dough and roll them flat up to a medium thickness like a roti. Spread the mixture over one flat circle (roti) and keep another roti over it. Press the edges gently so that two rotis get merged. Roll it carefully so that paratha turns to medium thickness. Fry over pan with hot oil or ghee until both sides get golden brown.
