Gobi Paratha Recipe | How to Make Gobi Paratha Recipe | Step By Step

November 23, 2015 97 Comments

I have been putting away this Gobi Paratha Recipe post for the longest time possible. I made these Gobi Paratha over a month back and took step by step pictures. I was too lazy to edit and upload and post so kept picking the simple recipes to post. Today I had to share this with you because I tried making layered gobi paratha in a different way and it was so much better than the traditional method of making the paratha, addng the filling, bringing the edges together and rolling it out again before cooking it on the tawa. I have given the shots of the usual method below. More Paratha Recipes on Edible Garden!

Gobi Paratha

Now for the different method I tried, you have to endure the whole post 😀

Let’s start with 1 cup minced cauliflower or gobi. Make it as tiny as possible. Like this.

Gobi Paratha
I recently got a Philips chopper/blender/whisk set and used the chopper blade to get it minced. Its super quick and I use this for pretty much all my chopping now.

Gobi Paratha
Since my kitchen has lousy lighting, I don’t have step-by-step pics of how I made the filling for Gobi Paratha but its quite straightforward. 

Recipe for Gobi Paratha Filling
Minced cauliflower – 1 cup
Onion – 1/4 cup, minced
Garam masala – 1 tsp
Cumin / jeera – 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder – 1/2 tsp
Ginger garlic paste – 1/2 tsp (optional)
Oil – 2 tsp
Salt – to taste

How to Make Gobi Paratha Filling:
Heat oil, add the jeera and when it starts spluttering, add the minced onion and fry till golden brown. Next add the ginger garlic paste, garam masala and the chilli powder. Mix well with salt for a few seconds. Then add the cauliflower, sprinkle some water and cook covered on sim for about 10-12 mins. The cauliflower should be cooked well by now.
It should like this at the end. I added some crumbled paneer for good measure. You can add some chopped coriander leaves as well. I just didn’t have any.

Gobi Paratha
Now you need to make the dough. You will need 3 cups atta/whole wheat flour, salt and about 1 cup and a little more water. Mix in the salt and add water little by little to to the atta to make a firm dough. Let it rest for about 30 minutes.

Make lime-sized balls and divide each ball into two, like below. Now, for all those smart ones who ask “why can’t we just make smaller balls instead of making a big one and dividing into two?” the answer is: we need the two halves to be of the same size because we are going to roll out the halves and then superimpose them with the filling in between.
Ok let me show you that. Let’s start with halving each lime-sized dough ball.

Step by Step Pictures for Making Gobi Paratha:

Gobi Paratha
Then roll out each half. I know this is not a perfect circle. I like it this way.
Ok I admit, I can’t ever get a perfect circle. You caught me. I forgot this is why I never take step-by-step pics while making rotis or parathas. Well, too late now. Damn!

Gobi Paratha
Once both the halves are rolled out, spread some prepared filling on one half..
and super-impose it with the other half. Like so.
I know I haven’t done a perfect job of super-imposing either but I am going to ask you to stop finding fault if you genuinely want to learn how to make gobi parathas. Great gobi parathas!

Good. Now dust with some flour..

Gobi Paratha

.. and roll it out. Some of the filling will come out and that’s fine. The edges will be slightly thicker so make sure you give some extra rolling-time there.

Gobi Paratha
Once you have rolled out all the parathas you can out of the prepared dough, cook them on a hot griddle or tawa until both sides are golden brown. Most of my parathas fluffed beautifully, more than parathas made the traditional way ever did.
I should probably hook up some studio lights in my kitchen. I so wanted to show off how well they fluffed. Anyway..
See how lovely the filling looks inside once they are done? I didn’t add any extra oil while cooking. The filling gives out some and that was enough for me. If you want, go ahead and indulge by dabbing the cooked parathas with some butter while they are still hot.

Gobi Paratha
I couldn’t get over how the layers separated while eating and showed the lovely filling inside. Make sure you dip them in some curd / raita and pickles while eating.

Here is the recipe with measurements again in case it was lost up there among all those pictures.

Gobi Paratha Recipe

INGREDIENTS:
For the dough:
3 cups atta/whole wheat flour
1 cup and a bit more water
Salt
Mix in the salt and add water little by little to the atta to make a firm dough. Let it rest for about 30 minutes.
For the filling:
Minced cauliflower – 1 cup
Onion – 1/4 cup, minced
Garam masala – 1 tsp
Cumin / jeera – 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder – 1/2 tsp
Ginger garlic paste – 1/2 tsp (optional)
Oil – 2 tsp
Salt – to taste

INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil, add the jeera and when it starts spluttering, add the minced onion and fry till golden brown. Next add the ginger garlic paste, garam masala and the chilli powder. Mix well with salt for a few seconds. Then add the cauliflower, sprinkle some water and cook covered on sim for about 10-12 mins. The cauliflower should be cooked well by now.

    Hello Nagalakshmi,
    rather amused at the surprise expressed by all your good readers on hearing of this very very old and traditional way of making stuffed paranthas. Of course they must have tasted wonderful; this is the method I have been following for years. We should leave the other method of stuffing paranthas- ie rolling up and rolling out- to seasoned halwais of Old Delhi etc 🙂
    Wishing you all the best in many more delicious enterprises.

    I tried this recipe and it came out awful. Not enough spices added to the stuffing so it was very bland tasting and since you cooked the onions and gobi so much before putting it in the paratha the filling was too wet and made my paratha hard to roll, very sticky and falling apart. I will try another recipe with more flavor added to the filling and one that uses raw shredded gobi instead of cooked. My husband said it was the worst gobi paratha he ever had.

      well as you can see, it came out perfect for me and quite a few people after that. it's possible you overcooked vegetables or under-kneaded the dough, etc. Or, maybe it's just that some recipes only work for some people. Who knows.

      Oh and also, regarding the spices, what I have added here is MY preferred amount for MY meal. I would expect anyone trying this recipe to use their own judgement on what works for THEM. Obviously, what's enough for me may not be enough for you, etc.

    I was double-checking the quantity of flour for parathas and was nice to see that you make yours the same way I do, especially since I'm not Indian. They are so much easier and better for me this way than the ball method.

    Gobi!!! I am a lover of Gobi and I eat everything made from it. I've been pestering my wife to make me this gobi paratha but she did not know why. She did have some cook books, but they were not that helpful. She gave up and asked me to go eat it in a restaurant. Finally I came to this post and I am making my wife do it from here. Will let people know if it came out well.

    Hello SM, US is the capital of all things appliances so I am sure you get something like this there. A food processor is what I'd recommend since its handsfree and you can use it for practically everything chopping, mixing and grinding related. I don't own one so can't give a review but can ask around and give you recommendations.

    I do have sambar, rasam and spring rolls already posted 🙂 Write me at naagu.v[at]gmail.com and I will send you the links. Or you can do a search using the search bar above.

    Keep in touch SM!

    Hey Nags,

    Thanks a lot for this. Any idea if we find it in USA? or in india with 110V. Also do you use any Food Processor which is good…or daily basis for chopping? I live in the USA and I am looking for something like that to make chopping easier so I get more time to actually try elaborate dishes. Would be great if you could add to the MMKT section, food processor, mixer-grinder, etc all the products you use with pictures, since I am still new to setting up a kitchen and would love to get ideas from you..

    i also really like the humor in ur blogs… looking forward to more interesting recipes – Like maybe Rasam,Sambar, coconut chutneys,spring rolls etc…not sure if i missed them

    WIll keep following ur blog and trying stuff…

    Great idea Nags..stuffed parathas are a nightmare for me since 99% of the time,the filling sort of comes out while rolling-not a pretty sight.I succeeded only once while making stuffed paneer parathas,but paneer is much more easier since it blends in.Love gobi paratha with cool cucumber raita and pickle.Shall try out your easier version soon!!

    Nanma – Using pestle and mortar for cauliflower may not mince it uniformly. In fact, I haven't tried it except for spices and ginger-garlic so you could give it a shot. Otherwise, just chop finely by hand, that should work too 🙂

    Wandering – yes adding milk to chapati dough works wonders, i have tried it, though its not the usual way I make it. I use the potli method too but somehow prefer this method because of the way it fluffs and also is much softer 🙂

    Great step by step recipe. I also make gobi parathas this way. Only thing is the filling is different. Its simple minced gobi, with grated cheese, salt and green chillies – uncooked. All gets cooked when parathas are getting cooked. Shd try your recipe for the filling next time, though the taste of gobi with cheese is just awesome 🙂

    Nags! I am seeing this one late. I like the first process better…what i do is pinch the edges so they are thinner than the rest of the paratha and then join them in together like a potli and stuff it in…that way, it gets binded well and isnt lumpy and when u cook it, it doesnt remain raw 🙂 what helps is having the dough extra soft. MIL says adding two spoons of milk to dough while kneading does the trick 🙂

    Awesome method, Nags. I have to try this method now, because this is do-able! I have had aloo parathas made by someone else this way, and they were great. I have never been able to get the stuffed and rolling out to work for me, and always ended up getting the mixture kneaded in with the dough which does not make it authentic stuffed parathas.. The step-by-step pics and the final pictures make me feel I can make this successfully:-) Thanks…

    This is such a fantastic post, but I can definitely see why you were putting it off for so long – I bet it took a lot of work!

    I love the step-by-step instructions, they actually give me hope that I can make Gobi Paratha look as delicious as yours does 🙂

    Thanks for the recipe!

    this is nice.. usually the cauliflower is minced and stuffed raw . it’s a good idea to fry the it before stuffing.. it will taste much better.i should try this method. pics look neat.

    TBC – I used to read her on and off but she posts super quick so its hard to keep up 🙂 I know my writing style here has changed but it happened due to a sudden revelation. I have a personal blog where I goof off like this and then here I used to be very straightforward and give out just the recipe thinking that’s what people. The other day, a close friend said she reads both my blogs and it would be great if she can get all the content in the same place. Though I don’t intend to combine the blogs, I thought why not be myself here too. That’s why you see me trying to be funny in here as well 😀 This is who I am in real life.

    Hope I didn’t scare you away 😉

    I can’t find the comment now but someone asked about freezing these. You can definitely make the filling and the dough on the day before, refrigerate, thaw the next day and follow the method. I haven’t tried freezing after cooking so do that at your own risk 😀

    Your layered parantha looks great Nags! I have tried this method earlier but somehow found that it tastes a bit different than the usual method. Maybe its time for me to try it this way again & see.

    When I saw the first pics, i was going to say hats off to u, making a gobi paratha by filling & re rolling it.. with gobi I think its almost impossible.

    Very nive description & pics. I make mine between 2 rotis, but u have really gone an extra step in making the filling, whcih defintiely makes it taste better. i use just the raw grated gobi mixed with some chutney:-)

    Those parathas look delicious. Great pictorial. I refrain from making parathas because of all the work that goes in and the end result is never what I expect it to be. But your superimposing method looks easy enough to try. Have a great weekend.

    Gr8 job done,loved the texture of the parathas.My best friend in college,who was(is) a true punjabi girl,used to bring those yummy gobiparathas,and the taste still lingers on.Though we use to have those Ghee soaked parathas with the Paani kum chai(Dilute tea)in the canteen,they still tasted worth million dollars
    Thanks for reminding me of these,i am going to dedicate my weekend breakfast to u and my lovely frnd,with these parathas 🙂

    Great idea Nags..stuffed parathas are a nightmare for me since 99% of the time,the filling sort of comes out while rolling-not a pretty sight.I succeeded only once while making stuffed paneer parathas,but paneer is much more easier since it blends in.Love gobi paratha with cool cucumber raita and pickle.Shall try out your easier version soon!!

    Layering between the chapathis is a neat idea to make the parathas Nags. Lovely pics too. :))

    Slurp!!! I love Gobi Parathas. I made one too, is in the draft but the usual way of stuffing. This one is easier, layering betn chapatis. Photos are gorgeous, specially the last one.

    Enjoy the weekend, hugs! 🙂

    What a good idea. I’ve been playing with curried cauliflower this week and it hasn’t turned out quite right. I love this approach though – I will try it and let you know. Even better, I have leftover mango chutney to use too. Thanks!
