Ingredients

• 2 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Water
• 1 medium head Cauliflower
• 1 unit Green chili
• 1 inch piece Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Vegan oil
• 0 as needed Vegan oil for cooking

Directions

Step 1

Mix the whole wheat flour and salt in a large bowl. Gradually add water, kneading until a smooth and pliable dough is formed. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Grate the cauliflower finely using a grater or food processor. Finely chop the green chili and ginger.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegan oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped green chili and ginger, sauté for a minute.

Step 4

Add grated cauliflower to the pan. Stir in the ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. Stir in the chopped cilantro and set aside to cool.

Step 5

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each into a ball. Flatten a ball and dust with flour. Roll it into a small circle about 4 inches in diameter.

Step 6

Place 2-3 tablespoons of the cauliflower filling in the center of the dough circle. Bring the edges together to seal and pinch off any excess dough.

Step 7

Gently flatten the stuffed dough with your fingers, then roll it out carefully into a circle about 6-7 inches in diameter. Be gentle to avoid tearing.

Step 8

Heat a skillet or tawa over medium heat. Add a rolled paratha and cook for 1-2 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface.

Step 9

Flip the paratha, drizzle or brush with vegan oil, and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes.

Step 10

Flip again, apply a little more oil and cook until both sides are golden brown with evenly cooked spots.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. Serve hot with vegan chutney or dairy-free yogurt.
