Gobi Paratha (Cauliflower stuffed Bread)
Gobi Paratha recipe is not only just a delicious but healthy and vegan recipe made by the whole wheat flour flatbread stuffed with cauliflower stuffing. This is the recipe I crave during winters. I can’t explain to you the experience you can have with this and especially when you have it with raita, pickles or chutney.
Though gobi paratha is traditionally made as a breakfast recipe, I mostly have it during lunch and dinner. So grab a cup of tea, make this recipe and let me know how did you find this?
This version of my gobi paratha recipe is different from what you’ll get from other websites on the internet or cookbooks. Because my focus was it should be a vegan recipe with less oil/ghee means healthy too.

For making gobi paratha
