Gobi Paratha is a delicious Indian flat bread which is easy and quick to make. Learn how to make perfect Gobi ka paratha recipe with few tips and tricks.
Gobi Paratha is filled with the goodness and taste of Aloo Parathas plus it has also the nutrients contained in a cauliflower. Stuffed parathas have always been a cherished breakfast in our family.
My parents and we all siblings used to enjoy savouring these piping hot, stuffed Indian flatbread. I remember visiting home while I was studying Dental Science and living in a hostel. Mom would make a variety of stuffed parathas for breakfast and serve them along with fresh, home made curd, pickle and freshly made butter.
These parathas were one of the best things that happened to me! There was something very special in her parathas, the taste which I could find no where. So this time when mom was visiting us, I asked her to guide me to make Gobi Ka Paratha and since she was standing by my side throughout and guiding me through the process, the parathas came out exactly like hers.
I promptly wrote the recipe with all the do’s and don’t and now I am pretty confident about making Gobi Paratha.
My mother loves preparing Gobi Ka Paratha more than other parathas because she says that they are pretty balanced. Firstly, though potatoes are also added in its stuffing, the usage of grated cauliflower makes these parathas more salubrious.
When I serve Gobhi Paratha to my kiddo, he feels as if he is eating Aloo Parathas and my purpose for making him eat some more cauliflower gets fulfilled, yay! So, you could do the same trick and make your loved ones eat healthy Gobi Paratha. Do read its recipe and serve scrumptious Gobi Ka Paratha with curd, pickle or fresh raita of your choice.
