METHOD

• For dough : Mix wheat flour and maida with salt and oil,well.
• Then prepare a soft dough by adding warm water to the flour(it should not be stiff but soft...) and keep aside.
• Usually I prepare and keep the dough atleast for  half an hour.

For stuffing:

• Grate the flower part of the cauliflower using a grater,as shown in the picture.

• Keep ready the other ingredients required for the stuffing and heat a broad kadai.

• Add  cumin seeds,asafetida(not shown in pic),ginger,green chillie in order.Fry for a minute.
• Then add the grated  cauliflower,fry for a minute and add turmeric(not shown in pic),red chilie and garam masala powders,coriander leaves and sprinkle salt (little only will be needed).
• Fry in high flame for 5-6 minutes,with constant stirring. 
• Fry till the cauliflower turns soft.By this time it should have reduced into half the amount.
• Transfer to a bowl after done and cool down.

• Take the prepared dough and roll into balls of big gooseberry size.(as shown)
• Roll the balls into chapattis and keep aside.

• Take one chapatti and spread at least 2 tablespoon of the stuffing till the ends.
• Place another chapatti over this and first press gently over it, and then seal the ends and fold as shown in the picture.

• Sprinkle over some flour and spread into thin or thick parathas as per your desire..
• Heat tawa and add little oil and toast this parathas till golden in colour.

• Serve hot with any kind of raitha or simply with pickle!
