cheesy cauliflower paratha recipe | cauliflower cheese lifafa paratha | gobi cheese paratha |

Handy envelopes of whole wheat flour rotis hold a lip-smacking mixture of cauliflower and cheese, perked up with apt ingredients like green chillies and coriander.

The highlight of the Cheesy Cauliflower Paratha however is the addition of roasted pomegranate seeds and chaat masala to the cheesy stuffing, which gives it an awesome aroma and flavour.

Ingredients

For The Dough
1 cup whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
1/4 cup plain flour (maida)
salt to taste
1 tsp oil for kneading
whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta) for rolling

To Be Mixed Into A Cheesy Cauliflower Stuffing
1 cup grated cauliflower
1/4 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup diced mozzarella cheese
1 tsp ginger (adrak)
1 tsp finely chopped green chillies
2 tbsp finely chopped coriander (dhania)
1 tsp chaat masala
salt and freshly ground black pepper (kalimirch) to taste

Other Ingredients
whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta) for rolling
6 tsp butter for cooking

Method

For the dough

Combine the whole wheat flour, plain flour, salt and oil in a deep bowl.
Knead into a soft dough using ¾ cup of water. Cover the dough with a lid and keep aside.

How to proceed

To make cheesy cauliflower paratha, in a small bowl add wheat flour and approx. 5 tbsp of water and whisk well to make a thick paste. Keep aside.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions.
Roll a portion of the dough into a 220 mm. (9 inch) diameter circle using a little whole wheat flour for rolling.
Place a portion of the cheesy cauliflower stuffing in the centre of the circle.
Fold 2 opposite corners of the circle over the filling, overlapping them slightly.
Now apply little prepared wheat flour paste using a brush. Now fold the remaining 2 sides of the circle to seal the stuffing well and form an envelope.
Heat a non-stick tava (griddle) and cook the paratha, using 1 tsp butter, till golden brown spots appear on both the sides.
Repeat steps 3 to 7 to make 5 more parathas.
Serve cheesy cauliflower paratha immediately.
