Paratha is ready.Serve it with pickle of your choice and raitha.

  • If the stuffing is bit watery and not dry,add two table spoons of rice flakes(poha/aval)to it.It absorbs the extra moisture.
  • Finely chopped onions can also be used along with the cauliflower. 
  • Chaat masala can also be used for extra flavor.
