Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- Pinch of red chilli powder
- 2 cups finely chopped and boiled cauliflower
- 1 ½ teaspoon Salt
- Water (as required for kneading the dough)
Directions
-
In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and vegetable oil. Add the cumin seeds, turmeric powder and red chilli powder. Mix everything together until it forms a crumbly texture.
-
Now add the salt and boiled cauliflower to the mixture and mix everything together until it forms a coarse texture.
-
Slowly start adding water to the mixture and knead it until a soft dough forms.
-
Cover the dough and let it rest for at least 10 minutes.
-
After 10 minutes, knead the dough again and make small balls from the dough.
-
Now take one ball and flatten it with your fingers or roll it with a rolling pin into a circle shape of about 5 inches in diameter.
-
Heat a flat tawa or griddle over medium heat. Place the flattened circle on the tawa and wait for around 30-40 seconds.
-
Flip the circle over and wait for 30-40 seconds until it starts to bubble.
-
Flip it again and apply some oil over the flattened paratha.
-
Flip it again and apply some more oil over the other side.

Cook it until both sides look golden brown and crispy.
