CAULIFLOWER CHAPATTI (GOBI PARATHA)

I haven't logged into my blog for so long that I even completed my college. So, I wanted to continue with this blog as I don't want it to die out. Today's main ingredient is cauliflower. While cauliflower is not a well-studied cruciferous vegetable from a health standpoint, you will find several dozen studies linking cauliflower-containing diets to cancer prevention, particularly with respect to the following types of cancer: bladder cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, and ovarian cancer. 


Ingredients:


  • Finely chopped cauliflower - 1 cup
  •  Carom  seeds (ஓமம் ) - 1 table spoon
  • Green chilies - 2 numbers
  • Ghee - 50 grams
  • Wheat flour - 300 grams
  • Salt - As per requirement
Method:

  • Finely chop the the chilies to get the spicy essence in the chapatti.
  • Now mix the finely chopped cauliflower, finely chopped chilies, carom seeds and salt with water till a soft mound of dough is obtained.
  • Let the mixture soak for some 15 minutes.
  • Make round balls and roll out into thin chapattis using little wheat flour for dusting.
  • Heat the Tawa and put the cauliflower chapatti on the top of that.
  • When it puffs up turn over the other side and cook till the chapatti is brown or golden on both sides.
  • Add Oil or Ghee to chapatti on top. ( can even add butter if preferred).
Hmmm... Is that hunger calling me?
