Stuffed Parathas are a must in every North Indian household for breakfast, especially during weekends.
Being a North Indian, I used to wake up smelling these piping hot and crispy parathas since my childhood.
And ever since I got married, I have maintained this tradition of making Stuffed Parathas during weekends.
One of my absolute favourite to make is this, homemade GOBI PARATHA.
Filled with a delicious and spicy filling of Gobi, this is not only my favourite but even enjoyed thoroughly by my family members too.
This Punjabi Style Gobi Paratha is also a delicious dish to make when you have guests coming over for breakfast.
You can also try some of my other favourite Stuffed Parathas – Broccoli Paratha, Aloo Paratha, Palak Paneer Paratha and Kacche Papite Ka Paratha.
Learn how to make this inviting Gobi Paratha recipe, which also makes a delicious dish for your weekend brunch.
Here is the recipe of Dhaba Style Gobi Paratha.
What is Gobi Paratha?
A delicious stuffed paratha that has a mouth watering filling of grated cauliflower that is spiced up with green chillies, coriander leaves, ginger, salt and garam masala powder.
I have also added boiled potatoes in this paratha, but you can avoid adding it and make this paratha only with cauliflower.
You can even add grated paneer instead of potatoes in this Paratha.
There are two ways of making a Gobhi Paratha – one with the filling and other one, where you can knead grated cauliflower along with the flour itself.
The kneaded one will give you thin parathas whereas stuffed parathas will be thick and crisp.
But if you are making it for your breakfast or brunch, I would suggest you to make Stuffed Parathas, as the joy of eating them crisp and hot along with pickle and curd has a different joy all together.
Just keep pressing the parathas towards the griddle with the back of a ladle, so that they cook evenly and you get crispy parathas.
Gobi Paratha Ingredients
What to serve with Gobi Paratha?
You can serve Gobhi Paratha along with simple plain curd or with a raita of your choice.
This stuffed paratha also tastes great along with green chutney or even lahsun ki chutney or just serve it along with a pickle of your choice.
Can you freeze Gobi ka Paratha?
Yes, you can definitely freeze Gobi Parathas.
Once the parathas are ready, let them cool down properly.
Stack them by keeping butter paper in between and store them in ziplock freezer bags.
This Parathas will stay good in the freezer for about a month.
Make sure you don’t add in onions in your Parathas, as it will decrease the shelf life of these parathas.
Once ready to eat, just thaw the paratha and cook them on a hot griddle once again.
