• oil - 1 1/2 tbsp

Method

2. Heat the oil in the kadhai. Add the cauliflower, salt & turmeric powder & cook covered on low heat until the vegetable is nearly done.
3. Now add the kasuri methi & chilli powder, turn up the flame & cook for a few minutes until the filling is completely dry.
4. Set aside to cool.
5. Make a dough with the flour, salt & water as you would for rotis. (fairly stiff dough) Allow to rest for about 1/2 an hour.
6. Take lemon sized ball of the dough, roll it out a bit. Place a tbsp of filling in the center . Pull up the sides & pinch it together to close. Flatten & roll it out again into a circle.
7. Heat a tawa on medium flame & place the paratha on it. After the first side gets done a bit, turn it over & cook for a couple of minutes.
8. Dribble some oil all around the paratha & allow to cook for a min or two. Turn the paratha over again & dribble some more oil & cook again.
9. Serve hot with curds & pickle.
