Gobi paratha/ Cauliflower flatbread

 My husband doesn't like roti/paratha recipes. My mom was discussing this recipe over phone. I was missing the food made by my mom. I thought I would prepare this dish and enjoy the real taste made by her. When I did, I was skeptical about my husband's comments. But first time without any fussiness he relished the paratha. Try this recipe and have fun!


Ingredients:

3 cups of wheat flour
1 cup of water 
1 spoon of melted butter
salt as required

250 grams of cauliflower
1 potato
1 small onion
1/2 spoon cumin/ jeera
2 green chilli
1 spoon grated ginger
1/2 spoon red chilli powder
1/2 spoon garam masala
1/4 spoon turmeric
Oil as required
salt as required 


Preparation:

   1.Mix the wheat flour, salt , butter and add water. Knead well enough to make a dough. Keep aside for half an hour.
   2.Grate the cauliflower and potato. In a pan heat 1 spoon of oil,     add jeera. As jeera sputters add  finely chopped onion, green chilies, grated ginger.
