- 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour 1 cup = 250 ml
- 1 small Cauliflower
- 2 Green Chili
- 1 teaspoon Coriander Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ajwain / Carom Seeds / Omam
- ¼ teaspoon Cumin Powder
- ¼ cup Coriander Leaves Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cooking oil
- 2 tablespoon Ghee
- To Taste Salt
Take wheat flour in a mixing bowl and add water little by little and knead it to a soft but stiff dough, cover the dough with a damp cloth and set it aside for 15 minutes
Remove florets from cauliflower and grate the cauliflower and keep it aside. Finely chop the green chillies and keep it aside. Heat oil in a pan and saute the coriander and carom seeds for couple of minutes.
Add the grated cauliflower and finely chopped green chillies and mix well
Add turmeric powder and cumin powder and saute the cauliflower in medium flame for couple of minutes along with salt. Finely add finely chopped coriander leaves and mix well and remove the pan from flame. Now our cauliflower with mild spice filling is ready
Make lemon sized balls out of the paratha dough and keep it ready. Take one dough ball and make like a cup as we do for kozhukattai and then add a tablespoon of filling inside the cup
Carefully close the dough cup and seal all the edges using wet fingers so that the filling is sealed nicely stuffed inside the dough. Repeat the steps 5 and 6 for the rest of the dough and filling. Take each stuffed dough ball and roll it by dusting flour on both the sides. Roll it gently and slowly to make sure the stuffing doesn’t comes out. Also using a fork prick the edges so that bubbles are not forming while rolling so that to make sure stuffing doesn’t come out.
Heat a tawa. The tawa should be smoky hot. Place the rolled paratha in the tawa. Cook the paratha till you start getting bubbles. Gently flip it on the other side and cook the paratha. Apply butter on the cooked side. Again flip the paratha to the other side and apply butter and cook the paratha till both the sides turns nicely golden brown color.Remove paratha from flame. Repeat the same for rest of the parathas
